That does occur (every time)...but I have also noted that some of the text in a table's column is arbitrarily broken at the line breaks. For example "bottom" becomes botto m There is not even an attempt at proper hyphenation? > 2.

I am using OOo 2.0 (the so-called "stable" release) on Windoze 2000 and Gentoo Linux. According to the official roadmap (http://development.openoffice.org/releases/OpenOffice_org_2_x.html) thankfully there will be a "quick fix" update, OOo 2.0.1 in November. -- Regards, Rick Barnes www.nostabo.net Read my blog: http://www.nostabo.net/blog/index.php ******************************************************************* "You should always go to other people's funerals; otherwise, they won't come to yours." - Yogi Berra This e-mail sent via Evolution 2.4.1 running on a Linux 2.6.13 kernel.
