The display position of the underbrace is above and to the left of the formula (what looks like a relative (0,0) position) instead of below and centered. The position of the overbrace is below and to the left. The item used in the overbrace and underbrace is positioned correctly, it is just the brace that is badly positioned. The pdf's generated a document with these, though, are fine.

I'm still seeing this problem. It's a weird one. I see it with both the installed version and the portable apps versions of LibreOffice Writer when I'm running on the Windows 8 OS. But when I use the exact same portable apps version of LibreOffice on a Windows 7 machine, the problem isn't there. It could just be I have a funny install of Windows 8... I haven't had a chance to try it out on a different Windows 8 machine.
Created attachment 88909 [details] Screenshot (Linux) of example overbrace / underbrace formula with code David, what is the Math code you are using to create the example shown in the attachment to comment#1 ? You can see in the attachment to this comment I am using: {size +12 bold{3243}} overbrace a over 31 newline 42 over {size +12 bold{4567}} underbrace f ...which appears to display OK in v4.1.3.2 running under Crunchbang 11 linux. I will try and test this further today under MacOS 10.6.8 and Win7HP.
Something as simple as x underbrace 3 won't be rendered correctly. When I export to PDF, it does just fine, though. So I have a work-around. BTW: I've tried the same thing out on a friend's Windows 8 machine and I get the same broken result.

David, can you please attach a test document so this can easily be reproduced. Does this persist with LO 4.3RC1 on windows 8.1? http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ if so please back to unconfirmed.
Something as simple as "5 underbrace 5" in the equation editor in Writer will not render correctly in Windows 8.1. I've just updated to 4.2.5.2 to double check, and the updates so far haven't addressed this yet.
Just checked the 4.3.0.1 prerelease version of LibreOffice and it has the same issue.
Back to UNCONFIRMED.
Still an issue on Windows 8 (but not Windows 7) as of LibreOffice 4.3.4.1. -David
This is probably the coolest bug I've seen in 3+ years...truly only affects Windows 8...so strange. Tested on: LibreOffice 4.3.5 Windows 8.1 Ubuntu 14.04 Windows 7 Bug ONLY appears on Windows 8 Marking as: New Normal - can prevent high quality/professional work Low - while it's pretty inconvenient, it's affecting a single OS and only when using a particular feature that is not used by majority of users (formula, using specifically underbrace/overbrace)
Tested on 3.3 and it has the same issue. So this is inherited from OOo, updating version to reflect this.
Duplicate Bug! Please find the proposed solution here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60268#c20 You have to delete the original font file (Windows\fonts\opens__.ttf) first and then install the modificated one (right click on the file OpenSymbol_V1.7_new2.ttf -> install).
