Hi!

This looks like issue 100303:
"Cursor position wrong in justified paragraph formatting on Mac"

A quote from description in 100303:
"...the justification is displayed incorrectly (too much spacing between characters instead of between the words)..."

Regards,
Stefan

You seemingly need to:
1) Start a new Writer document
2) Set paragraph alignment to justified, enable nonprinting characters.
3) Type "Test test test test ooooooooooooo..." and continue the last
   sequence until the line gets wrapped.

At that point, reportedly, on Mac OS X you get extra inter-character
spacing and misplaced nonprinting characters, while on other systems you
just get more space between words and the nonprinting characters are
correctly positioned.

At a first glance, I see the extra inter-character spacing but not the
misplacement of non printing characters. (MacBook Pro Intel 10.5.6, OOo
3.1. Sun build)

Extra inter-character spacing in addition to more inter-word spacing is
typographically a much better way to have justified alignment than only
having inter-word spacing augmented, so that's ok for me.
What I see is when toggling visibility of non-printing characters,
inter-character spacing changes drastically. Imho this seems to be more
an annoyance than as a bug.

Furthermore I don't think it's issue 91183 because that issue deals
about changed spacing in character menu.

Could you please describe "misplaced nonprinting characters"
