Sorry for my ignorance about Chinese language. Before I put the post I made simple test by copy/paste the text from notepad into OO and MS Word application and I noticed that there is difference as on screen shots. My college (who is not Chinese) told me that MS Word behaves more appropriate than OO then I decided to post this issue and ask what I'm doing wrong. After all when I put the post I made more tests regarding to the text wrapping in MS Word. Now I cannot reproduce the same wrapping in MS Word on new document as well :) it behaves the same as OO. What I have done more is I installed Chinese (PRC) - Simplified Microsoft Pinyin IME 3.0 keyboard. Moreover I noticed that on MS Word document which I was previously created when I edit it and use Chinese (PRC) keyboard and start typing then the current wrap is changed (same as OO on the screen shot). I don't understand this behaviour. Anyway, can you write me if there is possible to do the following wrapping in OO of the text below: zhong [space] hua [space] [space] ren [space] min [space] gong [space] he [space] guo [space] The extra space after /hua/ is where the word wrap is expected to take. My questions are: 1. How to achieve it in OO? 2. Does such wrapping make any sense in Chinese?

Hi, Sylwester, When I need a wrapping like this, I simply add an ENTER after /hua/. I don't know a neater way to do it so other more experienced people may help. Additionally, I don't think such a wrapping is necessary or appropriate for 中华人民共和国, as the text has the specific meaning as a whole(aka People's Republic of China in English).
