  3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/681868/+attachment/1746109/+files/buggydoc.odt
  && soffice -writer -nologo buggydoc.odt

  the text fits to size vertically looking as it does in Ubuntu 8.04,
  OpenOffice.org Writer as shown in the screenshot

  4) What happens instead in LibreOffice via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/681868/+attachment/1746109/+files/buggydoc.odt
  && lowriter -nologo buggydoc.odt

  or Ubuntu 10.10 OpenOffice.org Writer is the vertical lines overrun
  the text vertically, as shown in the following screenshot
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/68690535/LO3.3.png

  WORKAROUND: Highlight text -> secondary click text -> primary click
  Paragraph... -> Indents & Spacing tab (notice it states under Line
  spacing the drop down box is Proportional with the combo box to the
  right is 80%) -> change the Line spacing drop down to Single -> OK
  button

  WORKAROUND: Highlight text -> secondary click text -> primary click
  Paragraph... -> Indents & Spacing tab -> change the combo box to the
  right of the Proportional drop down to 100% -> OK button

  WORKAROUND: Use Abiword.

  Original Reporter comments:

  In OO writer, in a table row where height is "fit to size"  - the
  paragraph line spacing affects the row height for single lines of text
  after upgrading from ubuntu hardy/openoffice 2.4 to lucid/openoffice
  3.2.

  In OO 2.4, the row height wasn't affected by the line spacing defined
  for paragraphs in rows with single lines of text.

  This seems to only arise in documents where the fo:line-height is less
  than "100%" (eg. if paragraph line spacing set to proportional 80%).

  In order to "fix" a document with ubuntu OO 3.2, you need to select
  the table, right-click, Line Spacing -> Single (or 1.5 or double).
  Line spacing should only affect row height when *more* than one line
  exists, since as the term implies, its the space between lines.
