If things are displayed differently, it's likely a bug.  The bug may be in 
KOffice or in OpenOffice.org, but in any way we are grateful if you report it. 
You can do that on http://bugs.kde.org/. Unfortunately, it's not the easiest 
to use webapp on the planet, but not the worst either.

We do want maximum compatibility and interoperability, so that's why all 
reports that it doesn't work are so important.

If you want to communicate directly with the developers, you can come into the 
#koffice channel on irc.freenode.org.
