Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org-writer

After increasing my screen resolution to 1280x1024, I found that some icons in OpenOffice Writer (as well as the other OpenOffice programs) are very difficult to read. The blurry icons are generally ones with small text. These include Spellcheck (the ABC is very condensed) and un/ordered list (the numbers and bullets are indistinguishable). I may be nitpicking, but this interface would not be very friendly for a first-time user.

I would also recommend altering the Navigator, Show Draw Functions, and Datasources icons. Currently, it is difficult to determine what the buttons do without mousing over them.

I may have attributed this to the wrong package...

Pay special attention to un/ordered list icons.

i don't know if it's related, but also ooo icons shown in gnome "task swither" (when you press alt-tab) are blurry (and also these icons are different than the ones shown in the taskbar (in taskbar oowriter icon is a sheet of paper with a blue dot, and in task swither it is blurred sheet of paper with a view of a sunset). unfortunately i'm not able to do a screenshot of a task swither :-( but the icon on task swither is the same as icon on matt screenshot (new document icon on the left just under "File")
