I was just wondering if anyone had ever thought of approaching the br-pt team who put together the LibreOffice magazine with regards to giving feedback of their use of Draw on such a large magazine project?

When I look at pages 2 and 3 of the magazine, whether in Draw v.4.1.5.3 or v.4.3rc1, they obviously know of some editorial hiccups with spacing that we should be aware of. If you see the .pdf versions of the same pages, the weird spacing does not appear and is properly aligned unlinke the Draw version.

For example:

P. 2 bottom of page in Draw, the large text field exceeds the page boundaries; same with the masthead (text field on left), the text bleeds past the white column.

P. 3: the text for p.13 and the column for page numbers over 100 do not space properly in Draw, but look fine in the .pdf version.

And you can see more instances of more spacing issues in the magazine that seem a little strange in Draw but render properly in the .pdf form.

Anyway, my point is that, it may be worthwhile to see if some of the LibreOffice Magazine editors could give some feedback on some issues they have with putting the magazine together. At least the end result would be a more streamlined Draw module able to take on the task of magazine production work.

Cheers,

Marc
