  • 1.  Spacing between paragraphs in spec

    Posted 07-02-2020 14:55
    Hi editors, the CS01 version has no space between paragraphs. That makes longer text parts hard to read and it results in descenders of text touching the gray reference rectangles. The ODF 1.2 spec has a space between paragraphs of 1.41mm, already set in its default paragraph style. Please set a space between paragraphs in CS02 too. Kind regards Regina

    Hi Regina I'm aware of this. Somehow the properties of paragraphs were inexplicably changed when the CSDs were produced. I certainly see it as part of the task of producing a template for ODF 1.4 that we fix the properties of all the styles that we decide to keep. The insertion of blank paragraphs should, if possible, be avoided, but I seem to recall that Patrick and I had some trouble with change tracking in editing Part 4 that could only be resolved by some awkward manual manipulations.

The insertion of blank paragraphs should, if possible, be avoided, I do not mean to insert blank paragraphs. That is a typographical no-go. I mean to set the paragraph bottom (and top?) margins to other value than 0. The other typographical solution would be to use a first line indent. But such is harder to handle and only needed if we would use 'register true'. but I seem to recall that Patrick and I had some trouble with change tracking in editing Part 4 that could only be resolved by some awkward manual manipulations. Why only for ODF 1.4? As we will have a CS02 anyway, it can be changes for ODF 1.3 too. Kind regards Regina

    Hi Regina Well, if the ODF TC don't mind waiting, of course the changes can be made for CS02. But Patrick and I reckon it will take us three weeks to tidy up the styling of ODF 1.3. I don't know why the styling got changed in CSD02. CSD01 looks OK. Kind regards, Francis
