Hi, A feature I find very useful on MS Word but unfortunately missing is that it can display multiple pages next to each other, so that if you have a high res monitor or Xinerama then you can have a few pages on the screen at the same time fully readable. I suggest two options: 1) Like MS Word you would select how many pages you want to be displayed horizontally (they have it off the Zoom menu which isn't entirely obvious). 2) (That I suspect might be easier, but is something I've never seen elsewhere - but might be actually much nicer.) is to make all pages horizontally next to each other and scroll through the document using the horizontal rather than the vertical scroll bar. Flexibility is important, so for example at work I'm lucky enough to have a pair of monitors and I can fit 4 pages accross - if I set it up just nice so two pages fit on each monitor and the join is down the middle! IMHO this is an important enhancement, since for me it makes it a lot easier to read a document on MS Word than OOo.
