maybe a WinNT specific bug? 

I remember someone telling me that WinNT means Windows Neanderthal... 
just kidding... :-)

@Telesto
do you have the chance to test on another computer with a different Windows version?
Comment 10 Telesto 2016-12-01 10:34:49 UTC
I have clue what the cause could be. I retested it on WinXP. Same issue:
Version: 5.3.0.0.alpha1+
Build ID: 43b5ca69aa545cf93eded55258d92d651917815f

On MacOS it's working fine with a recent Master and LibO 5.2.3.3.

Maybe we should get some more conformation with LibO 5.2.3.3 (on Windows)?
Comment 11 tommy27 2016-12-01 10:54:06 UTC
no misalignment using LibO 5.2.3.3 under Win7 x64
I notice however that the font of the right side is rendered differently than on your screenshots

screenshot in 5.4.0 alpha: font issue

here's a screenshot from 5.4.0.0 alpha (but in 5.2.3.3 is the same) under Win7 x64
Comment 13 Telesto 2016-12-01 12:55:10 UTC
@tommy27
You're right. The seems to be font related. When I replace "Dutch 801 SWA" with "Segoe UI Symbol" the spacing problem is solved.

Rendering of "Harlow Solid Italic" is also different, but isn't the cause of the issue; I think.
Comment 14 tommy27 2016-12-03 07:01:05 UTC
back on testing on Win8.1 x64
I confirm the bug alignment bug was present as said in comment 3
I had no Dutch 801 SWA Font

now I installed Dutch 801 SWA Font (all 4 variants) from http://www.fontpalace.com and the alignment bug is gone.

however I still see that instead of a Dutch 801 SWA Font, an Harlow Solid Italic Font is used in that file.

compare the different font look in your screenshot, in the screenshot from Jacques and mine.
Comment 15 Xisco Faulí 2017-10-18 12:22:33 UTC
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
