Why do my images bounce around?

[justme088]

I have clicked on anchor, but none of them hold the image in place. When things are moved anywhere I have to try to move them back. If I backspace to bring a paragraph or image up, it won’t stay there. If I use enter to move them down, then everything below moves also. I do this all the time and really need to do this correctly. I use LO everyday. I make pages for school children that have lots of images and sentences.

Sometimes the spacing between lines goes haywire. When I cut and paste something with an “Arial” type font, it pastes with a “Times” font, or it becomes tiny. I have put the font and size I want in Preferences, but it doesn’t matter. I never use Times. (It’s like a gremlin lives in my computer!)

I have a Mac Mini, Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Firefox 12.0, and Libre Office 3.4.4.
I’ve had these problems since before I upgraded. I hope you can help with my problems. Thanks.

I think 3.4.4 it is an old version, and many bug has been correct, try with the last version.
