A page from document showing the lines where there should be ***

Writer is replacing *** with double line, not spacing. It won't copy, but it will lines show when printing. I cannot find a field code or formatting method to correct this issue. I believe it only began after the last update. 

I've included a sample file to illustrate the issue.

Thank you,

Jonna Smith

HI Jonna,

This line is a poaragraph border. Put the cursor inside the paragraph, right click
and choose Paragraph..., next Borders tab, and click on the border to remove it.

Just after an automatic change, you can also type Ctrl+z to refuse the change.

Verify in Tools > Autocorrect > Autocorect Options... Replace Tab, if a such replacement(***) has been set here. If you type --- for example, this will be automatically changed into a continous line on the whole width. Remove it if you have no need of it.

Does this help you?
