--- Comment #4 from Joel Madero <[email protected]> ---
It's line spacing - LibreOffice only fits 21 lines per page, Microsoft Office
at the standard Times New Roman font fits 23 (which is expected - the
assignment I had due said "Times New Roman font, 10 pages max, double space
with 23 lines per page)".

Verified both on Windows and Linux.

Nothing disappeared. Everything matches up in terms of settings yet LibreOffice
shows 10 pages while Microsoft Office shows 9.25.

Both LibreOffice and Microsoft Office show:
Times New Roman font;
Size 12;
Double Spaced;
1" page margin

So it's either LibreOffice is using some different line spacing, the font
despite being 12 is a little bigger than MSO, the margins are slightly larger
(despite both saying 1")


There's not much more I can provide. I gave the proof - if you open the odt or
docx in MSO you'll see nothing is missing yet the pages to align. 

For cases where there is a page limit (often times with grants, court
documents, etc...) this is a blocker which prevents me (and others in my
position) from using LibreOffice in a professional way as it strips out as much
as 10% of the available writing space in an incredibly simple document.
