I don't understand why things seem to change when you re-open a document, but to start with you should not be creating a new page by adding blank lines, as you seem to be doing. If you want to start a new page, you should use Insert > PageBreak, or the corresponding keyboard shortcut. Page breaks created that way are much more stable. - Robert On 2025 Apr 19 12:44:39, Alan Cliffe wrote: > I use the OpenOfficeWriter/Text Document feature of Open Office 4.
