My bug report was about inaccuracies in the conversion from a Word document.  
Obvioiusly there needs to be compatibility here, regardless of whether the 
original error is casued by Microsoft or Open Office.

However, the simple solution would have been for me to move the callouts to 
the correct locations using Open Office.  I found this impossible.  I couldn't 
create new callouts as easily in Open Office Writer as in Microsoft Word.

In Word I can choose a callout style, click at location A and drag to location 
B.  I get an arrowhead at A and a box at B.  I can then resize the box and it 
remains linked to the arrow.  Open Office doesn't work this way - A and B 
become the diagonals of a box, and an arrow appears nearby but not joined on.  
The arrow seems to have no relationship to the location that I was pointing 
to.  The box also does not seem to work as a text box - text spills out of it 
and does not word wrap inside it.  Text, box and line appear to be unrelated - 
not really a callout object.

Maybe I've misunderstood how to use it?  Is there an alternative way to put 
arrowed labels on maps?
