Each course features roughly a 400-page Writer document that contains a variety of inline graphical objects created in Draw or Calc and then pasted in as a GDI Metafile. Usually, I need to resize those images and having visible margins REALLY helps that process. Perhaps you only need a different workflow? Do you want to align the graphic with the left egde of the text area? Rightclick the graphic (or the surrounding frame in case of graphic with caption) and align left. Or do you not use the mouse at all? Then you need only the positionsize dialog. You need not to see the page border, but LO will find it for you. I first thought too, I would need that border. But then I find no situation, where it is really needed. So please describe a goal, where you need the border line.

[libreoffice-users] Libreoffice and Opentype
The claims being made for the improved typographic features of Libreoffice 3.5 are disingenuous, to put it mildly. All are related to Graphite, a minority “smart font” technology that is not widely used (and that is implemented for Libreoffice with precisely two fonts). Meanwhile the mainstream smart-font technology, Opentype, now implemented by practically all other word-processors (and for which hundreds or perhaps thousands of fonts are available), continues to be ignored. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+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/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Hi Fernand, Fernand Vanrie schrieb: Regina , True for page layouts, but simple try a multiple column layout and try to position a picture (anchored to the page) The column boundaries are also gone. If you anchor a picture to page, then the reference is the page not a column. Anchoring to a page means, that the picture hovers over the continuous text and stays on that specific page regardless how the continuous text is changed. In such a situation an alignment to columns seems questionable to me. If you want your picture inside a column use anchoring to paragraph. Besides that, you know the column width and can set width and position of the picture accordingly. I know that people like using the mouse, but using the dialog is much more precise and flexible.

Re: [libreoffice-users] LO 3.5 corrupts DOCX completely
Hi :) The DocX implementation is not perfect in MS Word. There is allegedly an internationally agreed 'open' standard with the same name but inevitably there are deviations from that in MS products. LibreOffice is getting closer to the implementations used in MS Word but each version of MS Word implements 'the standard' slightly differently. According to the Microsoft.Com website (or was it the installer for MS Office 2010) it also varies according to which OS you happen to be using. So the way a docX is produced by MS Word 2007 on Xp may be slightly different from the way it's produced in MS Word 2007 on Windows7. Some LibreOffice users find they become the middle-man between colleagues in the same office using MS Word who would normally have problems sharing files with each other because they use different versions of Windows itself. Simply by opening and saving again in LO tends to fix the problems from either person and produces a document that magically works on both different MS Word users. MS keeps moving the goal-posts so if a document doesn't work then just post a bug-report about it. The LibreOffice devs then get around to 'fixing' LO so that it reads the new mess created by or desired by MS Office. Personally i would recommend avoiding the MS formats and just stick with Odf such as Odt for word-processing. If you need to share with MS Office users keep your original in Odt and just Save As... to get an MS format. I tend to use Doc rather than DocX as it tends to get less messy. This is just my own opinion based on experience, comments on this and other lists and from having just installed MS Office on the networked machine at work. It's not necessarily the view of TDF as i am not even a member of TDF.

Thanks, Ethan If you anchor an object to a character, your object will be treated as a character. That's why there are large white space on the line of your object due to its height. Instead, anchor it to a paragraph. Then you have freedom to move your object around. From my experience, what you're describing is anchoring 'as' a character; I'm anchoring 'to' a character, as anchoring 'to' a paragraph isn't specific enough for my document. The problem comes when the page break falls such that a full page would require the character to be on one page and the frame to be on the next. I've looked, but I haven't uncovered a mechanism in LO Writer to deal with this situation satisfactorily. -Ethan -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+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/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

This puts the data from that row into the form.

Re: [libreoffice-users] How to reach standard.dic

Re: [libreoffice-users] Extension MSOffice
Hi :) Obviously if 3.5.x is producing some files in MS formats that MS Office can't read then it's worth steering away from the 3.5.x at the moment. Since 3.4.x and 3.3.x didn't have those sorts of problems i would stick with one of those or use one of those to fix the problem if it occurs. It's usually a good plan to keep one version of documents in ODF format (format format again) just in case problems do occur as it keeps everything nice and tidy. Also MS are giving up on their Rtf format and now phasing out Doc in favour of DocX so presumably it will only be a 'few' years before they phase out DocX.

In the Language part of the dialog, there is a drop down list. It should contain English (GB) which is what you should select. It probably has USA instead. If I'm right change the value. See if this will get the autospellcheck to work. In the Styles and Formatting window (use F11 key to open this window), set the Default paragraph style to use English (GB) as the default language.
