Hi Kenneth -
This mailing list is actually for contributors dealing with quality
assurance. You'll likely want to ask the user mailing list - more people
monitor that with a wider response. You list a whole list of issues and
it's usually hard to get responses with meta questions.
My suggestion is to:
1) Email user list;
2) Each email addresses a single issue
3) If others see the same issues - best bet is to report a bug at
bugs.libreoffice.org - a volunteer then would have to volunteer for to fix
the issue (if there is one).
Warmest Regards,
Joel
P.S. I highly recommend not including cell phone numbers in the mailing
list - the emails are public

Greetings:
I wonder if the libreOfficeWriter problem can be addressed there. Mine is
nested in Ubuntu 14.04.2.
I ask your assist, getting a libreofficewriter re-config/work around,
which re-gains ability to get documents to open, like they have for five
years. Just did a sudo apt-get purge libreoffice followed by sudo apt-get
install libreoffice || sudo apt-get autoremove || sudo apt-get clean. No
difference after logging off and restarting.
Nice to have the clean up but plain old truth I, a 76 year old, want the
regular size file to open, not one that is one third the size. Why? I fight
macular degeneration/going blind if I do not use good habits, Alred
Vitamins as prescribed by my MD.
I don't see a way to post a sample; but since late Friday June 12th all
newly opened empty document work spacess are one third the size. Saved
documents open in the original readible font point size. Not so this
morning June 15th. The old docs are now smaller in size than they were
originally written; and, it is not feasible to edit or rewrite a
libreoffice writer created document on this PC. I do not see the same
problem on ubuntu forums.
What happens? The prompt always flashes. The prompt [and any wording I
compose] looks like a 7 point not 11 or 12-point type. The proposed page
you'd expect to work on is about one third the correct size
LibreOfficeWriter is not working correctly. Wish I new a terminal
instruction showing Report my fowl up assessment; so I could post
responses that reveals errors.
Problems are:
a. pages open approximately one third of what I saw until last +/- June
10th or 11th.
b. this morning June 15th, text on two or three lines appear to be block
marked. But to my knowledge I have not set up any such commands.
c. you can houver over text you wish to edit but changes cannot be made
readily and
d. once you get to the end of a line, the auto movement down to the next
line in the page is frozen.
e. to get to the next line, you must literally move the mouse, telling the
prompt to go there.
Again, I believe someone other than me has control over my PC. Yes, it
could be a virus or ??? Being I'm a federal retiree, it's feasible a Non US
source decided to hit my PC. I'd prefer to believe a config error or an odd
virus causing the unwanted difficulties.
From the 16th-23rd I'll be out of pocket with my G-kids so any help can
slide till I return or get another machine.
