I have created a test document. It is an A4 document, in
landscape, with two columns. Only the left hand column
contains text:-<br>

I'm not really sure what to look for here. In Debian running
LO 4.2.5.2 on a netbook I get a single slab of text when I
open the document. I assumed the information about columns,
fonts and page size would be stored as part of the document.
Here's what I see:<br>

That is exactly what I intended you to see.<br>
<br>
Now highlight the slab of text and change the font to Freesans. Save
the new version of the document and then open it in both Libreoffice
3 and Libreoffice 4. You will see that the document appears
differently in the two versions of Libreoffice when it should appear
exactly the same.<br>
