To whoever it concerns: greeting.
I wrote the following to Michael Meeks (after his article in Linux Format
promoting LO (which I am trying):
"In its parent OpenOffice there is a long-standing defect (reported over 3 years
ago, issue 76587) that makes the equation setter in the Linux version a total
joke (common characters such as ()+ etc. print wrongly or are unprintable) and
the app is consequently useless in Linux for much science work. It is, though,
OK in MS Word. Details attached. I did my bit to try and get this attended to in
OOo but no success. This got OOo a bad reputation. I'd hate that to continue in LO."
Like Octavio says, when I export to pdf from LibreOffice and open it in
evince it looks fine.
I *can* reproduce http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=76587
which is not really strictly anything to do with equations. That's to do
with wmf rendering, and if the comment by r6144 is correct it should be
an easy enough fix.
