According to the manual [fn:1] '\\' is the intended syntax for linebreaks. Thus, this seems to be a bug in the odt exporter. Here is a MWE: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * Test line breaks in odt exports Here is a manual\\ linebreak. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Regards, Andreas Footnotes: [fn:1] http://orgmode.org/manual/Paragraphs.html ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

The exporter was pretty-printing the ODT XML with newlines after forced line breaks, but LibreOffice would interpret those as spaces.
