I have been using OpenOffice to create word docs for work and the TOC's 
don't align the page numbers on the right hand side correctly when 
viewed in Word. The TOC appears to have problems with which font it 
wants to use(it changes to the document default instead of what the rest 
of the toc is sometimes).

It's difficult to configure page numbering (numbering starting on second 
page)
