Assuming Ubuntu is not automatically doing this for you, you need to
run:
/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x product=0x
replacing  and  for the USR's values.  Then you can use the efax

Re: [libreoffice-users] Issue 3959 from OOo now possible in LibreOffice?

Hi :)

LibO is working on OOo issues but the LibO code has moved on quite a bit 
already so a lot of issues have been cleared up or are no longer relevant. 

It might be worth posting a new bug-report specifically against LibreOffice so 
that people know it is still an issue
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport



The standard answer when people ask this type of question seems to be
to try using Navigator and that usually seems to surprise and please
people but I noted the comment from the OOo bug-report that

Navigator view is similar, but not the same.  The difference is that the MS 
Word Outline view is done in the document window and contains the full text of 
the document, not just the headings.  It also contains all of the font settings 
and fields.  Printing while in Outline view generates an outline style printout.

Navigator view is similar to the MS Word Map Window, which shows the headings 
indented by level.

Regards from
Tom :)

 Hi all,
 
 I just joined the list. How does the LO community stand in
 regard to issues that were filed under OOo? Are these OOo
 issues uninteresting or unwanted in principle, or are there
 plans to mine this area for ideas to the development of LO?
 
 The issue is listed now at: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=3959
 
 Can this become an issue in LO now, or should it remain
 with OOo. I'd really like this feature in LO. It is the only
 reason I still use MS-Office Word, because real Outlining
 can not be done by OOo and LO. It is a show stopper for
 advanced  technical writers to convert to OOo or LO.
 
 Regards,
 Dreiel.

[libreoffice-users] Cell reference that updates all sheets?


-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I have 2 sheets in the same file.  Sheet 1 has the primary information
in it that must be reflected in Sheet 2.  There are a varying amount of
lines in Sheet 1.

When the cell contents of Sheet 1 change I want the cell contents of
Sheet 2 to change.even to reflect the inserting of new rows in Sheet
1.  That is;  if Sheet 1 has 10 rows then Sheet 2 will have 10 rows.  If
I insert a row in Sheet 1 and put some data into it then Sheet 2 must
immediately update and reflect what is in Sheet 1 including the new row
and its data.

How do I do it?

I've tried the Absolute reference method ($A$1) but that won't allow for
the addition of new rows in an additional sheet.

2011-12-15 Thread Tom

Hi :)
Are you able to get 11.04 to revert to the Classic Interface / Desktop
Environment?  When the login box appears after you restart the machine look
at the bottom taskbar/panel.  Somewhere there it should have a drop-down
(well, drop-up i guess) or button or something that mentions interface,
gui, desktop environment (DE) or session type or something.  It's
worth having a look at the other options on the taskbar/panel too. 
Hopefully it should let you switch back to the Gnome DE which it calls the
Classic interface.

If you want to revert to a previous version of Ubuntu i have a neat trick
that avoids losing data or settings.  I keep meaning to write it up
somewhere.  Do you want the trick?
Regards from
Tom :)

I am using Ubuntu Classic as Unity is not to my liking.To fix the
problem I just go to another screen and then back to the one that I
couldn't see the cell data in.

[libreoffice-users] Printing Multiple Copies Problem

2011-12-15 Thread Don C. Myers


Hi Everyone,

I'm running LibreOffice (version directly from LibreOffice) 3.4.4 on 
Ubuntu 11.10. I tried printing 75 copies of a single sheet with 
significant graphics (large file size) on a black and white 
Konica-Minolta PagePro 1400w laser printer. I had no idea that 
LibreOffice would be sending 75 individual print jobs to the printer 
instead of 1 print job with 75 copies. It crashed the printer, and also 
the driver after several copies. Then there was the horrendous mess of 
getting all of the unprinted jobs deleted.  I was able to use my inkjet 
(HP OfficeJet Pro 8000) to finish the printing after the laser crashed. 
Once again individual print jobs were sent for each copy, but the 
printer did not crash. Once everything was printed, I had about 10 
minutes of icons coming on the screen saying printing started and 
printing completed when the printing was all done. The icons were 
playing catchup with all of the print jobs. I've tried to research this. 
The only way I've found that you can print a large number of copies is 
to export the page to pdf, and then print the pdf. Programs other than 
LibreOffice (GEdit, Document Viewer) send 1 job to the printer with 
multiple copies. This problem did not exist in OpenOffice a year ago 
with whatever was the current version of openoffice on Ubuntu 10.10 back 
then when I printed the same job on the same laser printer.


Has anyone else had similar problems, or does anyone have any other 
solutions? I filed a bug report in bug 33696 on Freedesktop.org. It may 
not have been the best place for it since that was a bug report for a 
3.3x version and for Windows.


Don

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice Portable

Hi :)
False positives and the need to switch off security on a regular basis in order 
to do fairly routine tasks is such a normal part of the Windows world.  

According to most antivirus companies around 20% of Windows machines are 
infected with some sort of malware.  Apparently MS were quite proud when their 
new antivirus program found it was more like 80% (of machines that people were 
worried about).  All of which fails to recognise that Windows could be classed 
as a trojan in it's own right.  Anti-virus programs try to get ahead of the 
curve by worrying about programs that could be executables and therefore have 
at least a 20% chance of being malware.  Anything that is going to mess with 
the registry is also a worry for an antivirus program.  To flag or not to 
flag.  Each security program has to decide just how likely it is that the users 
actually wants to install programs other than itself and then balance that 
against the likelihood that the users is being fooled into doing something they 
might not have thought about.  After all, anyone that installs/has Windows and 
then worries about security is
 at least 20% likely to have an infected machine already.  If in doubt, blame 
the user for following instructions!  There must be an alternative to the 
paranoia of the Windows world but would people use it?  I keep getting sucked 
back into dealing with Windows (mostly to fix colleagues problems admittedly) 
and i'm guessing most people do, even here.  

Regards from
Tom :)

Absolute references won't work because they are updated as you insert rows.

One solution is to use INDIRECT to always point at the same cells.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Printing Multiple Copies Problem

2011-12-15 Thread webmaster for Kracked Press Productions



There has to be a way to do the multiple copies in one print job.

I printed a page using CUPS-PDF, but Export to PDF will do.

Then I went to print it out to an HP color laser printer.  There was a 
number of copies option show.  I wonder it that will make 5 or 10 
jobs, just printing the same job 5 or 10 times?


Do you have that option for your printers?

Hi Everyone,

I'm running LibreOffice (version directly from LibreOffice) 3.4.4 on Ubuntu 
11.10. I tried printing 75 copies of a single sheet with significant graphics 
(large file size) on a black and white Konica-Minolta PagePro 1400w laser 
printer. I had no idea that LibreOffice would be sending 75 individual print 
jobs to the printer instead of 1 print job with 75 copies. It crashed the 
printer, and also the driver after several copies. Then there was the 
horrendous mess of getting all of the unprinted jobs deleted.  I was able to 
use my inkjet (HP OfficeJet Pro 8000) to finish the printing after the laser 
crashed. Once again individual print jobs were sent for each copy, but the 
printer did not crash. Once everything was printed, I had about 10 minutes of 
icons coming on the screen saying printing started and printing completed when 
the printing was all done. The icons were playing catchup with all of the print 
jobs. I've tried to research this. The only way I've
  found that you can print a large number of copies is to export the page to 
pdf, and then print the pdf. Programs other than LibreOffice (GEdit, Document 
Viewer) send 1 job to the printer with multiple copies. This problem did not 
exist in OpenOffice a year ago with whatever was the current version of 
openoffice on Ubuntu 10.10 back then when I printed the same job on the same 
laser printer.

Has anyone else had similar problems, or does anyone have any other solutions?

 Note: even changed the pt to 2pt and color to green, saved the file,
 closed the file, reopened the file  the cell boarders are still 2pt/green.

 No doubt it works perfectly in the simplistic example you're referring
 to. In my case not all of the cells have borders on them and by
 selecting an entire sheet and applying formatting so that each cell has
 a border will not accomplish what I'm trying to do. 

Make up your mind:

Now
with LibreOffice all of the cell borders on the sheet are .25 pt.  A
change was made to the cell border sizes and I didn't do it.

How do I quickly change ALL of the cell borders in the many sheets I'm
working on?
/quote

Though not related
 my sheets don't have an option of apply Default Formatting. All I have
 is Clear Direct Formatting when I do a right click in any cell.

3.3.4 has that option. For 3.4.4: ensure that the Text toolbar is
showing (View|Toolbars|Text Formatting. Click the down arrow bar at the
end of the toolbar and select Visble Buttons|Apply Style. That will add
the style selection box on the toolbar. From there you can select Default.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Mail Merge Crashes

2011-12-15 Thread Paul Rolfe


Hi Cor,

I should have thought of that !

I created a new document and the Mail Merge worked using the existing 
database, so I gradually copied over the old document contents to the 
new document to see what happened.


The crash happened when I added a header, and added an image into the 
header (a blank header worked fine).


I'll post a bug report, as I've narrowed it down.

Thanks for the tip :)

Paul

Can you reproduce the issue with another document too? And also with

I've tried the Absolute reference method ($A$1) but that won't allow for
the addition of new rows in an additional sheet.

Absolute references won't work because they are updated as you insert rows.

One solution is to use INDIRECT to always point at the same cells.

Probably there are more elegant ways of doing this :)

Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

A very good option is use an array.

In Sheet2.a1 =Sheet1.a1:a15 and use Mays+Crtl+Enter to get an array.

If you insert a row in for example Sheet1.a8 then the array in Sheet2 is
expanded to retain the same size, even better if you have formulae in
the array rows in Sheet2, they are also copied in the new row.

To edit an array you must select the array not a cell in the array, use
Ctrl+/ for this.

I've never claimed it was immune, but it's much more difficult for a 
variety of reasons.  Windows, while now improved considerably, was 
essentially a security sieve.  One significant cause was due to Micros~1 
tying IE to the base operating system, to back up their claims in court 
that it couldn't be removed.  This meant that a problem for IE became a 
problem for the OS.  Also, Windows users have often had to run with 
admin rights, in order to use their computers.  This gives malware full 
run of the system.  On the other hand, Linux users rarely do, so any 
damage will be confined.  There are several other reasons.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Printing Multiple Copies Problem



I have been using HP lasers since laser II days.  The options can be 
different between my Ubuntu drivers and Windows version, but HP usually 
has some good options that are kept from the earlier versions.  That job 
copy option is one, if I remember right.


I just wish that the color printed for the HP Color Laser for Linux was 
as good as the original Windows version.  Right now the free drivers for 
Linux/Ubuntu do not do a good job at colors for the photos.

Do you have that option for your printers?

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Printing Multiple Copies Problem
To: users@global.libreoffice.org
Date: Thursday, 15 December, 2011, 18:07

Hi Everyone,

I'm running LibreOffice (version directly from LibreOffice) 3.4.4 on 
Ubuntu 11.10. I tried printing 75 copies of a single sheet with 
significant graphics (large file size) on a black and white 
Konica-Minolta PagePro 1400w laser printer. I had no idea that 
LibreOffice would be sending 75 individual print jobs to the printer 
instead of 1 print job with 75 copies. It crashed the printer, and 
also the driver after several copies. Then there was the horrendous 
mess of getting all of the unprinted jobs deleted.  I was able to 
use my inkjet (HP OfficeJet Pro 8000) to finish the printing after 
the laser crashed. Once again individual print jobs were sent for 
each copy, but the printer did not crash. Once everything was 
printed, I had about 10 minutes of icons coming on the screen saying 
printing started and printing completed when the printing was all 
done. The icons were playing catchup with all of the print jobs. 
I've tried to research this. The only way I've
  found that you can print a large number of copies is to export the 
page to pdf, and then print the pdf. Programs other than LibreOffice 
(GEdit, Document Viewer) send 1 job to the printer with multiple 
copies. This problem did not exist in OpenOffice a year ago with 
whatever was the current version of openoffice on Ubuntu 10.10 back 
then when I printed the same job on the same laser printer.


Has anyone else had similar problems, or does anyone have any other 
solutions? I filed a bug report in bug 33696 on Freedesktop.org. It 
may not have been the best place for it since that was a bug report 
for a 3.3x version and for Windows.

Reinstalling a previous version of Ubuntu fam (or just a very different ver) Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Can't see text in cell

Hi :)


Ok, sorry for the looong post!  Really it's just the last paragraph that is 
important.  The rest assumes you don't know how to get there.  


First, find out which partitions do what.  Hopefully you already know
this or can guess from looking at GPartEd on a LiveCd/Usb (or whatever) of 
Ubuntu 10.04.  From the top taskbar that is 

System - Administration - Gparted

{ Incidentally it might be just me but i find that when i boot up a Cd/Usb of 
10.04 or 10.10 and try the Try it option to get to the LiveCd session it just 
hangs.  While hung i can access the release notes and that opens a web-browser 
so i can do most sundry office things right there, ie before getting into the 
OS.  To get a proper LiveCd/Usb session i have to choose the Install now and 
then use the back button until i get to the Try it screen again.  Then the 
Try it option works just fine with no problems.  With 8.10, 9.04 and 9.10 
they all seemed to work right first time.  }

Anyhow, start a normal install but when you get to the Partitioning or 
Allocate Drive Space section (it's about  choose the bottom option.  It's 
something like Advanced or Manual or Something else.  The top options are 
something like Wipe whole drive and Install alongside existing OSes.  I 
think the default is to install alongside.  

The Advanced or Manual option rescans the hard-drive so there is a scary 
pause and scarier activity from the drive.  Then there is a fairly primitive 
gui partition editor that should show the same info as Gparted.  Edit or 
Change the appropriate partitions to do the same thing they were doing in the 
11.04 and keep the same format. 

If there are 4 partitions and you keep the Windows that was on the machine then 
it's probably something like 
sda1 = ntfs for Windows
sda2 = ext3 for /
sda3 = ext3 for /home
sda4 = linux-swap for swap

Note that an Extended partition is basically a bucket that allows the drive 
to have more than 4 partitions.  hard-drives formatted to the Ms-dos spec can 
only have 4 Primary partitions but 1 of those can be an Extended Partition 
that can then contain a LOT of Logical Partitions which are typically 
numbered from sda5 even if that skips a few numbers.  So you would get 
something like
sda1 = ntfs for Windows, about half the drive

sda2 = Extended
sda4 = ext3 for /  perhaps around 4-8Gb. i tend to give 8Gb jic

sda5 = ext3 for /home

sda6 = linux-swap for swap, maybe about 4Gb?  Should be =Ram or = 2xRam.  Just 
over Ram is about ideal size.  

Obviously if swap is getting used a lot (ie in low ram machines or very busy 
ones) it would be more sensible to place it first (or 2nd) but by default it's 
often last.  On an Ide/Sata drive the read/write speed is faster near the 
beginning of the drive but on SSDs it doesn't make any difference.  

If there is no separate /home don't worry.  The /home folder will just be 
inside the / partition and in that case the / partition is likely to be very 
large.  The linux-swap partition is still likely to be last.

The CRUCIAL bit is to make sure that in the column Format? that all 
partitions are UNticked as you don't want any of them to get formatted (well, 
the swap will be automatically but that is ok).  It's the formatting that wipes 
out datasettings.  

Regards from
Tom :)

 A very good option is use an array.
 
 In Sheet2.a1   =Sheet1.a1:a15 and use Mays+Crtl+Enter to get an array.
 
 If you insert a row in for example Sheet1.a8 then the array in Sheet2 is 
 expanded to retain the same size, even better if you have formulae in 
 the array rows in Sheet2, they are also copied in the new row.
 
 To edit an array you must select the array not a cell in the array, use 
 Ctrl+/ for this.
 
 The help in the wiki about arrays:

Yep. Definitely much more elegant (and efficient) ;)

Yes. I have both 3.3.4 and 3.4.4 so I can test in parallel. 3.3.4 prints
properly (1 job, multiple pages) as long as the 'Collate' option is
checked in the print dialog. Unchecking 'Collate' and printing results
in multiple print jobs as expected. So as to not waste ink, just test by
printing to a cups-pdf printer.

In 3.4.4 it's as if the 'Collate' feature doesn't exist. 3.4.4 prints
multiple print jobs whether the 'Collate' option is checked or not.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Base can't open databases

Hi :)
In 

Tools - Options - Java

It should list all the versions of java that are installed on your system but 
only 1 of them should be selected.  Are there radio buttons on the left-hand 
side.  I think that just above the box is a tick-box so that you can choose not 
to use java at all.  If you do something that needs java a pop-up error message 
typically pops up to grumble about not being able to find java.  

However if the database opens easily in OpenOffice and doesn't open well in 
LibreOffice then using OpenOffice's Base makes a lot of sense.  It's difficult 
to install and run OpenOffice alongside LibreOffice, or to run 2 versions of 
LibreOffice alongside each other but this guide might help
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

The version is incorrect ( I already asked someone to fix it)

The Windows files are already available for Beta1 (which is what I assume

Some Linux files seem to be incorrect, though... (I'll post another warning)

* I noticed that the installation notes on FileHippo (
http://www.filehippo.com/download_libreoffice/changelog/) included the
following unusual items:
 - With this Beta, you have to use the 'parallel installation' to
install it alongside the stable LibreOffice, and not replace it.
 - Unopkg.bin crashes during install (may prevent installation on
Windows7 and up).
 - Applications open a console window.
* OK so far.  Unopkg.bin did crash during install, and the program 
does

open an MS-DOS type window.
* I had LO 3.4.4 installed previously, and did not uninstall it prior to
installing 3.5.0 beta.
* Here's my problem.  Let's say I open an existing .odt or .ods file 
on my

external hard drive (F:), revise it, and then try to save (Ctrl+S) the
revised version.
* A box appears:  Error saving the document Internet address:  
Access to

F:\[name of folder]\[name of subfolder]\[name of odt or ods file] was
denied.  (OK button shown).
* If I click the OK button once, I hear an alarm sound that means 
you've

done something wrong.
* If I click the button a second time, a new box appears:  Error saving
the document Internet address:  General Error.  General input/output
error.  (OK button shown).
* If I click the OK button, the box disappears, and the file 
remains on

the screen.
* If I then choose Save as (Ctrl+Shift+S) rather than Save, and 
choose

a different destination folder or a different file name, a box appears:
  The file has been changed since it was opened for editing in 
LibreOffice.
  Saving your version of the document will overwrite changes made by 
others.
  Do you want to save anyway?  (Save Anyway and Cancel boxes 
shown).

* If I click Save Anyway, the revised file does indeed save in its new
location or new name.
* But this is obviously not convenient.  I want to save the revised 
file in

its original location and name, as per normal.
* Any suggestions for overcoming this?
* I realize that this is a Beta, and that a stable version will come 
along

in due course to replace it, but still ...

Thanks,
Steve Anderson
Centennial, CO, USA

 Hi :)
 Brilliant! I was wondering if that would be possible and had a bit of a
dig around but couldn't find an easy single point to edit. Did you use
findreplace? Which file did you edit?
 Anyway, congrats, thanks and regards from
 Tom :)

Yes, I used the find  replace with Gedit in Ubuntu.  See my earlier
posts on this topic to see how I did it.

I edited only the .fods file and then saved it.  Then, opened the .fods
file, check to make sure all borders were changed to the size wanted and
finally saved the .fods file as an .ods file.

Worked perfectly.

 I've found it easier to simply edit an FODS file and alter the cell
 border point size there.

 There is an in-between option between selct all and selecting specific

 Absolute references won't work because they are updated as you insert
rows.

 One solution is to use INDIRECT to always point at the same cells.

 Probably there are more elegant ways of doing this :)

 A very good option is use an array.

 In Sheet2.a1 =Sheet1.a1:a15 and use Mays+Crtl+Enter to get an array.
What is Mays?



 If you insert a row in for example Sheet1.a8 then the array in Sheet2
is expanded to retain the same size, even better if you have formulae in
the array rows in Sheet2, they are also copied in the new row.

 To edit an array you must select the array not a cell in the array, use
Ctrl+/ for this.

Miguel, thank you SO much for the help. It was a little confusing and
the HELP wiki made it even worse! Then I studied your example more and
figured it out. You've really saved me hours and hours of work.

[libreoffice-users] Improved!?

2011-12-15 Thread 20rdj04

I thought a new revision would be better than the old one.  I just tried to
check my Macro updates.  ALL of my macros are MISSING!!!  I didn't write the
macros or edit them just to have a new version erase them.  I know you
cannot restore my macros, but I am sure that other users will not be happy
to find their macros missing.

[libreoffice-users] [LibreOffice Writer: Feature requests]

2011-12-15 Thread Konstantinos Tzoannopoulos

Hello everyone. I've been using LibreOffice 3.4.3 for some time now, having
migrated from MS Office 2003, and there are two features that I'm missing:

1. The ability to have different text orientation between different cells
in a table (for instance, I'd like the top row of a table to have a
vertical, or even angled, orientation for the text inside the cells, with
horizontal text orientation in the rows underneath - or adjacent cells,
where one cell has vertical text orientation and the one next to it has
horizontal).

2. Smart formatting capability in numbered/bulleted lists: Let's say I'm
starting a bulleted or numbered list. I type the first word in bold or
italic or underlined (or any combination of the three), then I type the
colon (:) and then I revert to regular text. I would appreciate it if
Writer could recognize that this is the format I want for the rest of the
list and then automatically format the rest entries in the list.

There are also a few other things I'll report on later, but otherwise I
find that LibreOffice writer has great potential; I especially appreciate
the fact that I can hard-code (using commands) mathematical functions in it
- it's a lot faster to format and more powerful than Microsoft's equivalent.

[libreoffice-users] Slow Insert Row


-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

When I insert a row in small sheet it takes about 7 seconds before the
row is inserted.

This isn't typical for my machine.  On another much older machine of
mine the Insert Row process is instant.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04

Any ideas?

(No, I don't have a huge pile of programs that're open)

Try formatting the row/cells with FormatCharacter select the Position
