--- Comment #5 from [email protected] ---
It appears that in any file, in any place, a backspace causes a change from the
existing Font to Times New Roman (TNR). In the file I uploaded the default
paragraph setting (normal) uses Arial. In
<https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=81329#p375748> the
default font is Courier New.

1: A backspace causes a change in font in any file to Times New Roman. The Font
size shown remains the same as the original font size shown, but the actual
font size appears to be reduced to 10 (I use 12). The changes occur from the
point of the backspace forward and do not affect prior text.

2: The changed file given in the forum changes the symptom not the cause. To
wit, what has been done is to impose a global change of font (ctl-A, select
Font and Size). All this does is to force the same font for all text. The
required font in this file is Courier New. But, in the new file a backspace
causes the same issue.

3: The file generated in (2) above had already been generated by me in order to
produce the desired file with the desired format. Nothing new was presented
from someone else doing the same thing.

I know that this is a defect. What remains is to locate the cause. Is it
something local to my use that I must solve, or is it something in AOO which I
am unable to solve. I don't know and need guidance.

I might add that this aberration is new. Prior to 15 Jan 2016 it had not been
observed. That doesn't mean it wasn't there (I typically use Times New Roman).
Changing the default font to be something other than Times New Roman made the
defect observable.

On a related note, when I searched the bug reports prior to submitting this bug
I noticed that there were one or two other bugs about the change in size of the
Times New Roman font size. I believe that the AOO solution was to say that
there was no issue. I believe that this is incorrect and may need to be
readdressed.

I hope that this answers your (2) questions. And I truly hope for some
guidance. One suggestion in the forum is to delete and selectively reintroduce
my AOO profile, and thereby discover what in the AOO environment causes the
fault. I shudder to think that I will have to do this but, if I have to I have
to. This will probably take several hours and I'd like to avoid it if I can.
