Rene: Khmer requires very large amounts of vertical space.
We (KhmerOS) have
done everything possible to make fonts that use less space,
but you always must
reserve space for at least 6 lines of paralel writing, as it
might occur in
Khmer. One main writing line, three for subscripts and two
for superscripts.
This results in lines that are very separated from each
other, but there is no
way around it. The same problem occurs in newspapers, books
and any publication
or website in Khmer. Sometimes lines are placed closer
together, but the result
is signs from two adjacent lines crossing or touching each
other.

You cannot either use smaller text, because Khmer has very
small subscripts that
must be recognisable, and they would not be in smaller
text.

It is not a question of Ok or not Ok, we do not have a way
around it. We use
Khmer for OOo, KDE, Mozilla, the Debian Installer and a
large number of
applications... and it works for us, most of the time. When
it does not we try
to find a way around it, but reducing text or getting lines
closer to each other
are not a solution.

I don't think that this issue can be solved within
OpenOffice.
