Created attachment 84027 [details] 24x36 inch page doesn't center centered paragraphs I'm making large-scale docs (24x36 inches) to send out for printing as posters. I'm using large fonts, and I want the text centered. But I've found that the text lines need to be a minimum physical length and/or a minimum number of characters so that the text actually is centered. In the attached sample, make nonprinting characters visible, then add a single space (or any other char) on either side of the "i" on the first line. The line will then be centered. The additional lines are pairs at the same point size, where the second of the size's lines has one more "i" than the first. Even though all paragraphs are set to centered, the first line at each point size is flush left. Adding another "i" (or any other character) will make the flush-left lines move to be centered. (During testing, I also had interesting but still wrong results trying to use a centered tab positioned at 18 inches.)
confirming issue with LibO 4.1.3.2 under Win7 64bit. same behaviour with LibO 3.3.3 and AOO 4.0.0, so bug is inherited from OOo. set status to NEW, changed version field and added Writer expert to CC-list.
