Downloaded and tried 5.0.4.  Believe it or not, things are even worse.

Three quarters of the text on each label is now bold.  Nothing was bold 
in the document I created in 4.4.7.2.

Now, maybe there's a way to select all the text in all the labels at one 
time to change everything to bold or bold off, but I can't find it.  So 
at the moment, I'm changing the attributes one label at a time.  CMD-A, 
CMD-B, spinning beach ball.  Repeat next label.  Same result.  Each and 
every time.

Exporting as PDF via LO has the same result, labels are off vertically. 
 Saving as a PDF from Apple's print dialogue, same result, labels are 
off vertically.

I started with LO 3.x.x., labels didn't work then either.  I know not 
what the problem is with the coding, but by now all the kinks should 
have been worked out.  The labels certainly haven't changed.

I just tried it in 5.0.4 Windows 7.  Same results.

This is why I no longer recommend LO to anyone, and use it only minimally.
