--- Comment #9 from Guido Rizzo Cavadi <[email protected]> ---
I forgot to specify that most of my documents have NOT been created from
scratch (Start menu -> OpenOffice Writer shortcut).  

Instead, I created each new document by making a copy of previous document file
and writing new text inside it (I will call "cloning method"). So, for example:
- I had document A;
- then I made a copy of "document A" which I renamed "document B" and whose
content I changed accordingly to what I needed to write;
- then I made a copy of "document B" which I renamed "document C" and whose
content I changed accordingly to what I needed to write;
- then I made a copy of "document C" which I renamed "document D" and whose
content I changed accordingly to what I needed to write;
- and so on...

Reason of my behaviour is I wanted to keep the same looking for all documents
that needed to be collected in the same "book" and I didn't want to check,
every time I had to made new document, what font/size I choosed for title and
for the main text in the previous document. Therefore I used cloning method and
I just overwrote new text above the previous one.

Since I wrote lot of documents with this method, I don't remember anymore which
one is the original source file I used. However, it seems this original source
file got some minor corruption error which has been "cloned" as well as the
rest of document every time I made new document. This may be the reason why
this bug seems only to affect my files and not the files belonging to Rainer
Bielefeld.

Assuming this hypothesis is true and thanks to feedback comments sent from
Rainer Bielefeld, I made two test in order to check if bug still happens.
Therefore I created two documents from scratch (Start menu -> OpenOffice Writer
shortcut): first document I wrote some example text and second document I
copied/pasted text from "A03 - Reato.doc" sample file. Both tests failed
because bug didn't occur (side effect detected on Test #2 is that text got
pasted with some black coloured paragraphs and some blue coloured ones).

Possible conclusion: I got a lightly-corrupted document which affected all the
following documents created upon it. It seems this is not an actual bug of
program but just an error of my saved documents only.

Thank you very much for your attention to my case.
