I tried a different format to see if it would look good with a b/w 
banner from our new banner wiki page. (Sorry, I changed the DE flyer to 
letter size just for testing purposes)

How does this look? 
www.parentreprise.com/images/LibreOffice/Libo-challenge-detest.odt

Also some notes about the flyers in general:

1. proportional spacing should not be used as this causes too many 
rivers in the text, text should be set at "flush-left"

2. The treatment of "euro", "euros", "Euro", "Euros" -- it was pointed 
out that the EU Community established the singular form as the monetary 
designation. So whether singular or plural it should always read "euro" 
or "Euro"

3. The treatment of numbers with decimal and thousand separators. There 
seems to be a mixed bag with no real consensus on its treatment. We 
should then go for the middle of the road approach and use a space for 
the thousand separator and the decimal point (period) for numbers. 
UNLESS you wish to do some up for N.America only, in this case the comma 
thousand seperator with the decimal point.

4. the QR graphic is too large. It should be reduced to fit the height 
of the last paragraph.

Cheers

Marc
