Created attachment 116470 [details] Sample file to show tabs forced, and single tab failure In order to get a tab separator to show, it has to be entered twice (\tab \tab ). If a writer file is saved as Rtf, then only a single \tab is written, but on re-opening, that is lost.
I can confirm. I even set two tab stops in the paragraph style and used both of them and only the first was displayed. MS Word Viewer displays the extra tabs so it is a fileopen issue. Version: 4.4.3.2 Build ID: 88805f81e9fe61362df02b9941de8e38a9b5fd16 Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 5fc0cbbc1254223fedf0f78c5e7539219b228697 TinderBox: Win-x86@39, Branch:master, Time: 2015-06-11_04:30:51 4.2.8.2 4.1.6.2 displays the extra tabs. Adding Miklós to CC.
But when opening as a sub-document from a master (in 5.0.1.2), the tab is nonoured, so any second tab added to force the spacing (see previous comment) is also honoured, and too much space results!

The bug is still present in 5.2.1.2, on Ubuntu 16.04 (r-1)
Fixed - likely by the fix for bug 105095 and thus fixed in 5.4.0. (There are a few other bugs that really mangle this document on repeated round-trips though. Lost page breaks, header text moves into footnote.) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 105095 ***

Good, thank you! Justin - following your references to other bugs (#5), are you taking ownership of those?
