On Sat, 11 Jul 2009 08:25:04 -0700 (PDT) Came this utterance formulated by Joe Hartwig to my mailbox: i cant seem to find any old english fonts Like these? http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/SearchPage.htm?kid=old+englishst=12submit=Search so i was thing u guys should make it so the user can add fonts like downloading them and inporting them Fonts are generally added to the operating system, not the package. Although some packages have been known to add fonts of various qualities. Many word processors have been known to add fonts though this is less needed these days. Microsofts new fonts that come with Office 2007 also come with the free Power Point Viewer. im using windows vista any ideas on how i could get old styel english on there? beside what i said? oh and im talking about using the font to right letts and stuff not just to look at Then you'll most likely want the Old English (LET) font as you are righting letts and stuff. It seems to have a reasonable sized glyph set in the character map. http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/detail.htm?pid=4345598 Keep your writings short with a fancy font as people will give up if it is too hard to read. Free fonts often do not even include lower case letters. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-h...@openoffice.org

You have not told us if your computer is Windows, Linux or Apple, I will assume that you have a Windows machine, if I am wrong then please come back to ask for further help. In Windows Vista the way to remove any program is to go to the Start and then Control Panel. Control panel normally opens up a fresh window and will allow you to run the Programs and Features option. The program will display all the programs you have installed, normally in alphabetical order. Select the program you with to remove and then use the Uninstall/Change button at the top of the screen. This will remove the program in question. The process is very similar in windows XP except you run Add or Remove Programs. I hope that helps Rob - To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-h...@openoffice.org

Because I've been using and stuck with O2K and Win98/2K for so long they are naturally all (or almost all) TrueType Fonts. I remember searching for the New York Times font but they claim they use a proprietary font that isn't released to the public (so they say). That hasn't stopped someone from trying though. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-h...@openoffice.org

Re: [discuss] Re: Cut Paste
I've been listening to this thread for a bit. I'm hearing you say copy and paste...but the details of exactly what procedure you're using to copy and paste are yet unclear. From what you are saying it is probable that the issue yo are having a problem with arises from your copy-paste procedure, rather than from a program glitch. Perhaps if you would share exactly what that process is for you, keystroke by keysroke, click by click. How are you selecting what you want to copy? etc etc. Doug -Original Message- From: NoOp gl...@sbcglobal.net To: discuss@openoffice.org Sent: Wed, Jul 15, 2009 3:55 pm Subject: [discuss] Re: Cut Paste On 07/15/2009 03:28 PM, Ugly Sean wrote: NoOp wrote: On 07/14/2009 06:37 PM, Ugly Sean wrote: So if I have an item embedded in an HTML file (Ironically in this case it's an OOo newsletter) and copy the text and try pasting it into OOo Writer I get only one page.
