Compatibility Specifies compatibility settings for text documents. These options help in fine-tuning %PRODUCTNAME when importing Microsoft Word documents.
Some of the settings defined here are only valid for the current document and must be defined separately for each document.
UFI: added bookmarks due to bug #i24216#UFI: this one called also from Impress options Use printer metrics for document formatting Specifies that printer metrics are applied for printing and also for formatting the display on the screen. If this box is not checked, a printer independent layout will be used for screen display and printing. If you set this option for the current document and then save the document, for example, in an older binary format, this option will not be saved. If you later open the file from the older format, this option will be set by default.
Add spacing between paragraphs and tables (in current document) In $[officename] Writer, paragraph spacing is defined differently than in MS Word documents. If you have defined spacing between two paragraphs or tables, spacing is also added in the corresponding MS Word documents. Specifies whether to add MS Word-compatible spacing between paragraphs and tables in $[officename] Writer text documents Add paragraph and table spacing at tops of pages (in current document) Specifies whether paragraph spacing at the top of a page is also be effective at the beginning of a page or column if the paragraph is positioned on the first page of the document. The same applies for a page break. If you import an MS Word document, the spaces are automatically added during the conversion. Use StarOffice 6.0/7 tab stop formattingUFI: spec "Tab Stop Compatibility" Specifies how to align text at tab stops beyond the right margin, how to handle decimal tab stops, and how to handle tab stops close to a line break. If this check box is not selected, tab stops are handled in the same way as in other Office applications. In text documents created by %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION, the new tab stop handling is used by default. In documents created by %PRODUCTNAME prior to version %PRODUCTVERSION, the previously used tab stop handling is applied. Do not add leading (extra space) between lines of textUFI: spec external_leading Specifies that additional leading (extra space) between lines of text is not added, even if the font in use contains the additional leading attribute. In text documents created by %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION, the additional leading is used by default. In documents created by %PRODUCTNAME prior to version %PRODUCTVERSION, the additional leading is not used. Use StarOffice 6.0/7 line spacingUFI: spec spec-line-spacingUFI: api.feature "Adjusted formatting of text lines with proportional line spacing" If the option is off, a new process for formatting text lines with proportional line spacing will be applied. If the option is on, the previous method of formatting of text lines with proportional line spacing will be applied. In %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION and Microsoft Word documents of recent versions, the new process is used. In %PRODUCTNAME prior to version %PRODUCTVERSION, the previous process is used. Add paragraph and table spacing at bottom of table cellsUFI: spec spec-formatting-table-cells Specifies that the bottom spacing is added to a paragraph, even when it is the last paragraph in a table cell. If the option is off, table cells will be formatted as in %PRODUCTNAME prior to version %PRODUCTVERSION. If the option is on, an alternative method of formatting table cells will be applied. The option is on by default for new documents created with %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION and for documents imported from Microsoft Word format. Use StarOffice 6.0/7 object positioningUFI: spec spec-adjust-object-positioning Specifies how to calculate the position of floating objects anchored to a character or paragraph with respect to the top and bottom paragraph spacing. If the option is on, the floating objects are positioned as in %PRODUCTNAME versions prior to %PRODUCTVERSION. If the option is off, the floating objects are positioned using an alternative method that is similar to the method used by Microsoft Word. The option will be set to off for new documents. For Writer documents created by a version prior to %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION the option is on. Use StarOffice 6.0/7 text wrapping around objectsUFI: spec obj-pos-without-wrapping Specifies how the complex iterative process of positioning floating objects that are anchored to a character or paragraph should work. In %PRODUCTNAME prior to version %PRODUCTVERSION, an iterative process was used, while in %PRODUCTNAME %PRODUCTVERSION a straightforward process is used, which is similar to the same process in Microsoft Word. If the option is on, the former iterative process of object positioning is used. If the option is off, the new default straightforward process is used. Consider wrapping style when positioning objectsUFI: spec "Positioning of floating screen objects without considering its wrapping styles" If the option is off, the %PRODUCTNAME iterative process of object positioning is used. If the option is on, the straightforward process is used to ensure compatibility with Microsoft Word documents.
