Tabulators in ODP and PPT

Hi

I've made a presentation in LibreOffice Impress, which contains a lot of tabulators. When I finished my presentation I exported it to PPT, because the computer, where I had to do my presentation, only has Microsoft Office 2010 installed.

I got a little shock as I opened my presentation in PowerPoint. Almost all tabulators were displaced. Therefore, the formatting was messed up.


See attachment for example files.

Confirmed. Marking as NEW & Prioritizing.

Normal - prevents users from making high quality work

Highest - could be really embarrassing if a user saved a presentation and sent this somewhere or wanted to use it for a professional presentation. 

Also nominating for most annoying bug + hard hack

By the way I've discovered this bug while doing a presentation on a PowerPoint Windows machine. Fortunately, I only rarely used tabulators in my presentation.
