Description: I think it is linked with files that were first created in Japanese in the doc format, as I have seen this for lots of translated file. For example, see the japanese government funding application: https://www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-grants/data/09/2022/s-13_e.doc The text alignment and spacing is broken and leave "ghost" text outside of the document. I think it is related to the setting, "snap to grid" as removing this option tends to fix the problem. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open link file 2. Observe the bad alignment and scroll up and down 3. Untick "snap to grid" in the paragraph format options Actual Results: Alignment of text is broken (snap to grid is not working) Expected Results: Alignment should be correct Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Seems to be linked with files that were first created in Japanese
Probably Japanese document of S-13 is below: https://www.jsps.go.jp/j-grantsinaid/03_keikaku/data/r04/s-13.doc Download link page: https://www.jsps.go.jp/j-grantsinaid/03_keikaku/download.html > 3. Untick "snap to grid" in the paragraph format options Select menu [Format] - [Paragraph], [Alignment]tab Clear check box "Snap to text grid" Following "Steps to Reproduce", the display changed correctly. I don't know why the Japanese file didn't require that procedure.

Reproduced. Already in 3.3.0 1. Select the paragraphs between "Research Objectives, Research Method, etc." and "[SUMMARY]" 2. Right-click - Paragraph - Paragraph 3. Uncheck Alignment - Snap to text grid (if active), OK Alternatively: 1. Format - Page style - Text grid 2. No Grid, OK Now the line height matches the PDF exported from Office Web Viewer. It should be researched what is the cause for the Text Grid being active. What exactly in the .doc makes it active?

Created attachment 180324 [details] The English doc file By the way, after I tested with 7.3, I see the "ghost" text issue mentioned by Sylvain. It is like paragraphs running on top of each other. Fortunately it is fixed in 7.4.
Dear Sylvain, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.
