I do wonder what is the difference as anchor TO a character vs. anchor
AS a character.


Having just been through the mill with OOo on that one.....

Anchor /as/ character puts the graphic (or what-have-you) inline with the
text. It will flow with the text and cause wide lines for example.

Anchor /to/ character anchors to the character, but out-of-line. I don't
[yet] use lo, but if it's the same as OOo the actual positioning defaults to
relative to "somewhere" on the page [I'm hazy on the reasoning here] unless
the attributes are set as position relative to character (an option missing
from a relevant drop-box until 'anchor to' is set).

There's a thread on the openoffice users list in the last couple of weeks
or so where some good folks were patiently putting me on the right path. I
needed a line of text with symbols glued out-of-line above particular words
and moving with text edits. (Guitar chord symbols over corresponding text,
if you must know :-)  The real problem was the OOo documentation; I can copy
relevant descriptions to here from that thread if it's any use.
