[libreoffice-users] Re: Text invisible in Writer and Calc

Hi Jay,

Thanks for the reply. I failed to mention that on our systems we use LibreOffice 3.4. The fault 
occurred on the other system even with 3.3 installed, but I did not get the problem until I 
installed 3.4 on my macbook. 

Thanks so much for your reply.

Gary Dayton
