Filed a bug with TDF and added bugzilla link into this launchpad bug.

Thanks for filing, mez.pahlan.
I confirm the problem.
But it's not wrapping per see that is forgotten, I think.

It looks related to the issues
bug 34717, and bug 32950
Especially the latter looks suspicious. Could it be the same?

Hi Cor

No problem.

Bug 32950 certainly looks very related. I'm afraid I don't know enough about that bug or the code to say for sure. But on first glance it does.
