one page Word doc, two pages when viewed in oo writer none

Description medentmatt 2007-11-08 20:02:02 UTC 
When Viewing the Word document (version 97-2003) in Microsoft Word and Word 
Viewer, it is one page. When the document is viewed in OpenOffice writer, the 
document is two pages and the last sentence is on the top of the second page.

Note: The default printer can effect this. When my default printer is, say the 
Windows Fax printer, it shows correctly, however when I have any other printer 
set as my default printer, for example we use a Lexmark T630, the problem 
occurs as described. 

I will attach an example of the document we have this issue with.

Thank you.

MRU->FME: there are some empty paragraphs in the document which seem to have a
higher spacing in Writer. When filling these paragraphs in Word with characters,
you can see that these paragraphs will grow to normal font height.
Looks that OOo Writer needs some kind of compatibility mode for this.
