I used to work for a company that used OpenOffice (this was before

because they were so d@mn cheap, they wouldn't pay for MS Office.  ;)

Well cheap or not, it is nice to have as many big companies using 
LibreOffice as possible.


I bet there are a lot of people out there, and on these lists, that are 
using LO not because of being "cheap".  It is nice to have a free office 
suite but I prefer LO over MS Office. Just like I prefer to use Linux 
over Win10 because of all of the viruses and other nasties that Windows 
have, while Linux do not have these things infect their systems.

[libreoffice-users] Canon USA Printer Support are using LibreOffice?

2017-05-12 Thread Tim-L--Elmira-NY

I called Canon USA to talk about the ink usage of a new printer.

When I stated that I make letter size posters using LibreOffice Writer, 
he said "we use it".


So, with that statement, is seems that Canon USA printer support people 
are using LibreOffice.


I would love to get it verified, but it would be a good marketing coo 
for LO if a big company like Canon uses LibreOffice.


ALSO, finally Canon USA is now offering Linux drivers for some of their 
printers.  I use to have to go to Canon UK to find them - before I buy a 
new printer - if there is Linux support. Some of their printer lines do 
not have Linux drivers.
