Hi Philip,

Exactly the same issue here but not only in Calc but also in Writer, 
Impress and Draw. No old documents needed to reproduce it. Just open any 
of these modules, type in some characters so that you have at least two 
different fonts and two different font sizes. Then point the cursor in 
the text to the different fonts and font sizes and that's it.

I am currently using Xubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu Studio 20.04 and Ubuntu 
Budgie 20.04. I downloaded LO 6.3.6.2, LO 6.4.6.2 and LO 7.0.1.2 from 
libreoffice.org and installed them in an external hard drive so that I 
can access these installations from any distro. The issue only occurs 
when running these installations of LO 6.3 or LO 6.4 from Ubuntu Studio; 
it does never happen with LO 7.0 (regardless of the distro) and it also 
never happens when running any of these same three installations of LO 
from Xubuntu or from Ubuntu Budgie.

Best regards,
JPS
