[libreoffice-documentation] Does LibreOffice has official User Guide in Chinese?
Hi All! I use LibreOffice recently, both in Windows and Linux. But I found that there was no Official User Guide in Chinese. I search it on Google, and still didn't find yet. (Maybe I lost something) So does there have any LibreOffice User Guide in Chinese? If not, I may start to translate it, first to Simplified, then to Traditional. If I finished it. I want to submit it to community. To help other people who spoke Chinese to learn and use LibreOffice easily. Could someone give me an official answer? Thanks!

Doing a search or a search and replace looking for the apostrophe used in 'contractions' like 'we'll', returns no hits, even when I'm sitting three lines above one. It finds the 'we', and it finds the 'll', but not the whole word, nor the apostrophe alone. Over-typing the apostrophe and doing the search finds it ok. So I was just curious about what character is used for the apostrophe in the documents, if it's not U+0027. As I said, just curious. FYI, during the documentation styles cataloging I've started a few hours ago, I've noticed that not all paragraph styles have the same language defined. Some have EN (USA) while others have EN (Aus). Could this language thingy play the trick you're noticing? Note also, that the FR apostrophe, for instance, is not U+0027 but U+2019. BTW, this can be (un)set in Tools / Autocorrect options / Localized Options, Single quotes. -- Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Bordeaux -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Jean-Francois, first, I did not mean to distract you from work! Please go ahead, all the ideas are just suggestions for "nice2have" long term improvements. But nothing should prevent you from sorting out Documentaton styles.

Hi :) Apparently some people in Mexico were able to access the internet through a ham-radio set-up. Not hugely fast but good for emailing apparently. I guess 2 cups and a bit of string is pushing it. Pigeons have a high "dropped packets" rate but packet size can be considerably larger especially with usb-sticks.

[libreoffice-documentation] Fw: [libreoffice-users] Re: How do I link data from a LibreOffice Database (linked to a MySQL Server) to a LibreOffice Spreadsheet?
Hi :)
Andreas seems unable to stop himself being quite rude to people, often even
unnecessarily. However he is brillant at quite a lot to do with databases. I
think the docs team would probably welcome him (at least initially), right?
Personally i think he is a classic "back seat driver" ("takes one to know one"
i guess). I have never seen the docs team be anything other than friendly and
helpful
Regards from
Tom :)
