Ok, so it /can/ work on Linux+Firefox. Btw, the poor sound quality is not a Linux thing. The mpeg really is like that. Probably to make it more secure. But I think that reCAPTCHA went too far with the audio. I just saw Daniel's note about the plugin not found error. I guess I must have the required plugin, whatever it is. I wonder if we can get a list of plugins that come with Ubuntu but not with Mandriva. it depends on what software you have installed ...

[authors] Printed edition of Getting Started with OOo3 now published
Friends of OpenDocument Inc has just published the printed edition of Getting Started with OOo3, here: http://www.lulu.com/content/4633456 In addition to the paperback book (US$17.95), a free download of the PDF of the book is also available from that link. The interior pages are in black white. It is formatted for approx. 6x9-inch pages (the size of the printed book), which should print fine on A4 or US-letter paper if someone wants to print it. If you are paying for your own ink/toner and paper, buying a printed copy is probably cheaper than printing it yourself. The official PDF of the Getting Started with OOo3 book, and PDFs of the individual chapters, are on the Docs and OOoAuthors websites. They are formatted for onscreen viewing with two facing pages, since we believe that most people will read them onscreen, not print them. (They are also in colour.) The official PDFs will be updated as needed, more often than the printed book. Over the next few days I'll be adding links from various places to the printed book. Please feel free to publicise either or both versions of this book, or the wiki version, anywhere that seems useful. --Jean
