Thanks! Looks great.

* When you say "conditional hyphenation", where is the option switch for 
it, I can't seem to find it in "Options".

====================

Could we also take a look at the following links (ignore the hyphenation 
problem)?

We are trying to address Tom's complaint of p.2 panels 1 and 2.

One of the corrections to the brochure that we could make is move the 
complete bulleted list started on panel 1 and move it to panel 2 ... and 
move the text from panel 2 --> panel 1.

Just switching the text may address the spacing problem he mentions. 
Note that we should also consider the flow of information and see if 
moving the text has any impact on the "understandability" of the brochure.

So, we may want to compare the versions of:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:LibreOfficeV.4.0.x-CommunityBrochure-GeneralInformation-USLtr_JHW.odt 
USLtr_JHW version

with the posted demonstration version of:

http://www.parentreprise.com/images/LibreOffice/JuggledColumnsBrochurev4.0GeneralInformation.odt

Should we adopt the moved text version?

Cheers,

Marc
