Let me preface this by stating that I have already reviewed the material
in two books I own: "Getting Started with OpenOffice.org3" and "Writer
Guide". Both are printed versions of the on-line help site.
What I need to do is place a "fontworks" graphic at the top of a page
and then type text under it. I can't make it work.
I successfully use the Drawing Toolbar to access Fontworks. I click on
the format desired. My cursor is at the top of the page where I want to
insert the Fontworks. I'm able to select the text to resize it to fit
my (1-inch) margins, enter my own text to replace the "holder" text,
adjust the size of the new text to 10.5, and change the color to blue.
What I can't get to work is placing the cursor under the Fontworks
graphic in order to begin my project (a Webquest).
I tried to create the Fontworks graphic in Draw and import it into
Writer without success.
I'd appreciate any help you can provide. This is for a school project.
The professor requires MS Office files; I'm using OOo on Ubuntu 10.04
and saving as an Office XP file. This particular assignment requires
"word art" and images. I haven't even started on the images yet -- I
want to get the Fontworks inserted first.
Caption?
See attached.

I successfully built my project using the sample you provided. However,
when I save the file (as a Word XP file - the teacher requires MS Office
files), the fontworks disappears. If I try to redo the fontworks, it is
completely covered by a box of some kind. I thought it might be a text
box into which you had inserted the fontworks originally. I don't get
why it works in OOo but not in MS Word. Got any ideas?
