       Have you thought of -
            inserting a table where you wish to highlight the word/line?
        or
           changing the font for that word/line?
        or
           placing that word/line within an image then placing the image in
the document?

       There may be more options;
           these have worked for me.

One of the writers in the Windows Secrets newsletter recently compared OO
and LO to MS Office, and I have to agree with him when he implied the LO
web site is somewhat disorganized and confusing. Thus, this posting that is
probably an enhancement request, but I can't find anywhere else to do such
a thing.

I've used OO and LO for several years, and have found very little that I
did in Office that I can't do now.  One thing, though, is beyond the
nuisance level but short of being a game stopper.  I need the ability to
outline text within a paragraph.  I know a block of text can be highlighted
with a different background or foreground color, but I need something that
can actually be useful in a printed document.  Sometimes underlining is
insufficient, because it's not distinguishable from other underlined text.

As an example of what I want, just envision a box around "what I want" in
this sentence.  Obviously, outlining a paragraph doesn't do the trick.

Anyway, that's what I'd like to see sometime -- or, if I'm missing how to
do it now, somebody please let me know!

Dave
