Hi; I had a major problem converting my old WordPerfect document of about 33 pages to PDF. In desperation I downloaded OpenOffice. For some years I had been advising others to get it but I was fairly happy with WordPerfect. No longer so.
I am VERY impressed with your OpenOffice suite and thank you for it. On my website I'll be mentioning it. THIS question should, imho, be added to the FAQ: Question: My computer is running low on disk space; do I have to download and install the whole, huge suite? All I want is a new Word Processor so I won't have to buy "Microsoft Office" nor "WordPerfect." Answer: (ASSUMING I AM CORRECT!) Yes and no. You do have to download the whole huge 90+Mb file but when installing it you will have the option as to which of the 6 "Components" you want. In your case, you would install only the "Writer" component. When done, you can delete the huge file which you downloaded. The installation of the "Writer" will take only XXXXX??? of space on your Hard Drive. ANOTHER idea........ I wanted to make a small cash donation and have a Paypal account. I went to your page to do that but found it wanted EUROS only. Having no idea what to enter there, I declined to make the donation. I wanted to see C$ or US$ there. ---------------- Ken Laninga http://www.sticksite.com/ BLOG updated: http://www.sticksite.com/blog/
