The following is from the OpenOffice Help file; it should solve your problem.
Printing Register-true Register-true Register-true is a typography term
that is used in printing. This term refers to the congruent imprint of the
lines within a type area on the front and the back side of book pages,
newspaper pages and magazine pages. The register-true feature make these pages
easier to read by preventing gray shadows from shining through between the
lines of text. The register-true term also refers to lines in adjacent text
columns that are of the same height.
When you define a paragraph, Paragraph Style, or a Page Style as
register-true, the base lines of the affected characters are aligned to a
vertical page grid, regardless of font size or of the presence of graphics. If
you want, you can specify the setting for this grid as a Page Style property.
Setting a document to register-true printing
Select the whole document.
Choose Format - Page - Page.
Select the Register-true checkbox.
All the paragraphs in the document will be printed register-true, unless
otherwise specified.
Exempting paragraphs from register-true printing
Do one of the following:
Select all the paragraphs you want to exempt, then choose Format - Paragraph
- Indents & Spacing.
Open the Styles and Formatting window, click the Paragraph Style you want to
exempt, right-click that style, choose Modify. In the dialog, click the Indents
& Spacing tab.
Clear the Register-true checkbox.
