Description:
Hello,

this problem is very nasty. It first arrived for me in the early versions of Open Office until Open Office 4.0.1 ! Then they must have changed something becaus in Open Office 4.1.3 the problem was gone. There the font was displayed correctly. Now I wanted to move to Libre Office and the problem is back in LibreOffice. It only happens with this specific font ITC Avant Garde Gothic Std. 
I will attach the font so you can try out for yourself. It does not happen in other programs like textedit or Microsoft Office.

Best regards

This font I edited with font forge and tried to heighten the baseline. It did help somewhat in Open Office but not in Libre Office. Try this one as well
