Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Brochure-type: General Information

Hi :)
Errr the bullet-points issue is fairly minor if no-one else is noticing  what i mean.  It's a bit 
like kerning. Sometimes it's too trivial to be worth fixing but sometimes it's really horrible.  In 
this case the bullet-point indent looks fine as it is.  It might be a minor improvement but it's 
honestly not worth spending too much time on.  
Apols and regards from 
Tom :)
