Bug Description

Package : openoffice.org-writer 3.1.0-3ubuntu2~jaunty1
Distro : Xubuntu Jaunty 9.04 x64 (AMD)

What Is Expected:
I open the file (see attachment) and should see multiple choice answers A, B C, D....right after each question. This is the expected output in MS Office.

What Happens Instead:
I see a blank white area where the multiple choice answers would otherwise be.

I can not reproduce this using Xubuntu 9.04 and OpenOffice Writer 3.0 installed using Synaptic Package Manager. The document displays as expected, with no white spaces instead of choices. Have you installed OpenOffice writer? I also tried using Abiword, and got almost the same results. Abiword does draw boxes around each possible answer, a, b, c, d all have boxes around them.

I have writer installed. I use the following repository for Openoffice
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu/ jaunty main restricted universe multiverse

I've attached a screenshot to show what I am seeing. I have disabled all extensions as well, and still it displays wrong.

I can reproduce this on amd64 on official OOo 3.1.0 but it appears to be fixed on dev300m49 (OOo 3.2.0).
