Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 40764
No space between line numbering and text when auto setting
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:22:49 UTC
When importing a Word file that has line numbering space set to "auto", the setting in OOo is set to 0cm. This causes the line numbers to be right next to the main text, making it very difficult to read. I checked what Word does by making a PDF file from Word, and they output the line numbering .25 inches to the left of the main text.

MRU->AMA: Writer's line numbering does not have an "auto"-distance feature like MS Word has.
Yes, we should either have an "auto" distance our own or at least import it with a better distance than "0".

I am not aware of plans to introduce a "Auto" distance but maybe we could improve the filter by choosing a better distance than "0" during import?
