In my case I had a .doc resume that I created in OOo, then I had worked on it at work in MS Word, then tried to open it back up in OOo for some final edits and such. When I did the fonts just went haywire, which also increased the spacing. I never could get them to be consistent. I think I was using Word's Times New Roman and it wanted it to go to Nimbus Roman or something like that since I don't think TNR existed -- if it did I couldn't find it. I even tried changing it for the whole doc but it didn't like that either. Apparrently there was some macro running or something like that which I was unable to turn off. My solution: I am looking into AbiWord to see if that is any better. Marc
