Hi Andrei, Maybe I was not clear. I have several machines, all running either the same version of Linux, with (seems) the same fonts, or sometime a slightly different (e.g. upgraded) version of Linux. Or simply I update Libre Office. And every time, I have to reformat the whole document, because the same font does not take the same space. This is frustrating an time consuming. Pictures move, end of page moves, page numbers change... For example I don't update Libre Office before July because I have lots of documents that I probably need to reformat if I update, and I'll do that during the hollyday, for the next school year. I would expect a document to remain the same as long as I stay on the same platform. Of course, changing to Mac or Windows I do expect to reformat (and I use PDF as far as I can).
