Hello Henri, You're certainly right in that the reader can sometimes set it him/herself.
Thing is, I write for a publication whose editor wants us to submit all the stories in Microsoft Word...and set any embedded links* to open in a new window. She explained how it works in Microsoft Word itself. Of course, I use OpenOffice/LibreOffice, and not all the same controls appear here. So if there is a way to set embedded hyperlinks in OpenOffice/LibreOffice to open in new windows, any help in setting that up would be great. [*] And no, she doesn't want separate URLs. Thank you!
