Description zoowiez 2004-02-17 00:14:16 UTC 
When opening a MS Word file in OOo Writer, text that fills an entire cell of a
table is wrapped and takes up two lines even though it only takes up one line
when opened in Word.

MRU->US: does not look like a problem of the import. Only OO for Linux shows
this problem (SO on Linux also o.k.). Seems to be with the font which is
supplied with OO and "Arial" becomes mapped to...
Comment 5 ulf.stroehler 2004-02-18 16:29:48 UTC 
us: yes, mru is right.
Because Arial is obviously not available on the Linux system OOo substitutes the
font with the closest match, which is Helvetica. But the tracking and the size
of Helvetica of course differs. That's why it comes to admittedly unpleasant
layout changes. The only solution is to have exactly the same fonts on the
different platforms.
Sorry, but invalid.
