I also have this problem.

Using Intrepid Alpha 6 on x64.
OO version 2.4.1-8ubuntu

This is only a problem of numerals which appear within equations not in general 
text.
None of the "solutions" work for me, although I do find that which numerals are 
incorrect does seem to erratically change.
The print to pdf option is not a good solution - the resulting pdf does not 
contain the bookmarks.
 Attached pdf shows problems. (for example subscripts in equation 4)

This discussion of the same issue concludes that the bug is not present
in the openoffice official release only in the Ubuntu packages:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7796&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=10

Unfortunately I cannot easily test this as I am using 64bit.
I might give it a go on a virtual machine - which would be a solution for me 
for the short term.

I have been aware of this bug for some time and keep seeing reports which 
conclude it has been fixed... it is not fixed.
I see this as a major issue, I am pretty certain that I have already submitted 
one technical journal paper with these misprints in them!

Thanks, Jack.
