few suggestions to improve your great applications or to fix some basic missings..
Hello, Even your great application if free for my personal purposes outside office systems and working hours, I have donated you 5 $ by PayPal just ...5 minutes ago, as small piece of my large admiration for your compact better designed product less stressing hardwares than notorious heavy MS Office... However it was hardly for me as for any user in fact...to find a proper meaning easy and faster way to send my few suggestions ideas to improve your app or to fix some features. So, my first few ideas below: 1 - Firstly you should add directly in menu, maybe at HELP tab above About, a direct link to an interactive form to grab instant feedback and ideas from any user, simply structured not stupid as Opera Browser or other apps force to complete or select or even worse like loosing the time to log in for few text that I am sure will be valuable for you and not stressful to parse... The idea is the most ...ideas from users are often instantly as instant feeling when meet a situation usage regarding a feature, an action with your app so if you delay this instant feedback in many times risk to loose valuable feedback that by the way if free of any charging... You can use CAPTCHA system to avoid robots to spam etc. 2 - When I opened any file, there is a large demand to Print the only CURRENT page or even WhatYouSeeIsWhatYouGet as what I see in the screen without scrolling. Current latest release 4.1.1 still has no way to directly print by Right Click the screen in current page window So you may include these above maybe this above way as best in next release Regards, LGfrom ROMANIA / Bucharest

Seeking words listed in Afrikaans spell dictionary
Dear Apache OpenOffice I have no idea where I must inquire about accessing the words listed in the Afrikaans Spelling Dictionary available as an extension to Apache OpenOffice. Are you perhaps able to direct me to the right email address? Thanks in advance! EC Britz

I know what he means by the issue, though I haven't explicitly looked for it in OpenOffice. But in MS Word and Sharepoint wiki editor, every time you change font, character size, color, etc., it effectively creates a . Deleting the characters in that set doesn't necessarily eliminate the , and the empty s can accumulate. And of course each needs its own full complement of style attributes. Also, it's sort of instinctive to change a font or size or color "back" to what it was before a particular section by setting it explicitly. Each instance of setting will create a new block that your text goes in. So you'd have a that contains your normal text, then you'd have a inside that that contains your red text, then you'd have a inside that one that contains your back-to-black text. All these s lying around are like sinkholes that things can fall into if you're not careful. Perhaps a couple things that can help with that... - An option to either explicitly or automatically eliminate empty s. - A hotkey to turn off the last style attribute applied. Though again I haven't looked...Does OO already have these? Don
