Re: [libreoffice-users] Header beginning on page 2?
The simple answer is to use 'styles' but it is not necessarily simple to execute. If you have never used styles, it requires a little work up-front to familiarize yourself. Instead of using what is probably 'Default' page style throughout the document, you will need to create a new style for the first page - which you could simple call 'FirstPage'. In the definition of that page, you will turn headers and/or footers 'Off'. Then the rest of your document could stay with whatever is your default style and with headers and/or footers turned 'On'. Once you're into styles, you'll discover lots of page variants can be created for special purposes within your documents. hth, Philip On 29/11/2022 21:27, RealNameTBA wrote: Greetings again.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Weird line-wrap problem in Writer -- SOLVED partially

And if I manually return the paragraphs to English (USA) the line breaks become sane once again. What I have not figured out is a.) why this happened -- if someone were, say, to insert an English word into a document of Japanese Kana, would L.O. Writer decide the whole document is English? -- and b.) how to prevent it happening again. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
Re: [libreoffice-users] LO data wizzard
Hi Dave, I was trying to use mail merge in LO. The documentation (7.1, but I have 7.4) has some errors/omissions. Which documentation did you use exactly? And, if using LO 7.4 - isn't there a newer documentation available as documentation for LO 7.1? https://documentation.libreoffice.org/en/english-documentation/ - Step 6. The text says to click Finish once the connection is tested. Actually, you need to select the correct sheet prior to Finish. Sometimes there will be more than one sheet with addresses. This won't appear if there is only on sheet. You need to select it if there are more sheets. Could be you are missing this hint? - Step 10. "Click Finish. The data source is now registered." I get an error that says the file already exists - overwrite it? There is already registered a database with the name you have choosen. Could be you are running through the process a second time. Look at Tools → Options → LibreOffice Base → Databases Default for a database for addresses is "Addresses". Default name of this database is "Addresses.odb", which might be created in your document directory. Clicking Help gets another error saying the page does not exist. So, what do I do here??? File a bug if there is a buttonb vor "Help" and no help is available.

Re: [libreoffice-users] File conversion issue
Hi Shiva Prasad, Recently, some .docx files are failing to convert to .pdf. Might be there are special formating in these *.docx, which aren't available in OpenDocument format. Something like this: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143311 Have a look at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org for special bugs with *.pdf filter and printing.

Re: [libreoffice-users] File conversion issue
Do you see any problems / errors when you attempt a specific document manually? You claim that you cannot provide the example file, but, how much can you modify the example file and still demonstate the error? I once had a file that caused a crash and it was related to an image in a frame with a specific anchor type. Are you able to remove parts of the document and still reproduce the crash? Is the document long and perhaps there might be a timeout? Are you able to modify the text (like change every letter to an X)? Just a few thoughts.
