This is no longer a problem for me. I have not tested it in LibreOffice, though that is what I am using. The Ubuntu helpdesk helped me download a few Microsoft fonts that helped with the problem. Also, I have a Windows7 laptop that I got just for running my old Nikon slide scanner and we put Office2010 on it. By doing that, I was able to bring my documents up in 2010 and see what they looked like and fix them and then send them back to my LINUX machine for distribution to the people I was sending the documents out to. Some people didn't want PDF because you cannot take part of a page from it, so I ended up sending out .doc, .docx, and PDF to everyone to choose from in order to satisfy all the idiots who wanted a beautiful but compact document but were too lazy (or too incompetent) to print double-sided or fix the document themselves on their own machines. Fortunately, I have now turned this fun job over to someone else. They are being less accommodating and just sending out a PDF.
