[libreoffice-users] NA-DVD ISO files online and updated
For those of you who have asked for them, I have just uploaded the LibreOffice North American Community DVD ISO files to my SourceForge.net project account. [my web hosting service will not allow the hosting of ISO files the size of CDs or DVDs] There are two folders, currently. One is for the 4.2.x line and the other is for the 4.3.x line. I just uploaded the 4.2.6 and 4.3.1 ISO files last night. This is the direct link to the project's files. http://sourceforge.net/projects/libreofficenadvd/files/ I still need to upload the files to my web site versions of the DVDs, for testing before downloading, but the ISO files are more important at this moment. I feel sorry for not having these ISO files up sooner, but my ongoing hardware and health issues have delayed a lot of things. I hope to get the next versions online without the delay that these two had.

Instead of pressing the tab key, click the Increase Indent button in the Formatting toolbar. When you stop wanting the indent, click the Decrease Indent button. You can even create an outdent. This is even better than using the tab key, since you can use these buttons before you type the material, during typing, or even after you have completed typing. The tab technique presumably requires you to type the tab key before you start typing the paragraph.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Table presented totally wrong.
Hi :) For sharing and editing the Doc format is best. Errr, for spreadsheets xls, for presentations ppt. Everyone seems to be able to use them perfectly fine. It's an editable format so the text re-flows depending on the settings of whichever machine it happens to be on. However it rarely suffers from incompatibility issues. So it's probably the best format to use these days. If you want people to see exactly what the document was meant to look like, ie to show it before the text reflows, it can be a good idea to also give people a Pdf too. Pdfs are not usually editable so it's a good idea to normally share documents in both formats at the same time. Even Pdfs don't always disaply exactly the same on all systems because they often depend on the system having the right fonts.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Table presented totally wrong.
Mark Bourne wrote The .docx format changes slightly with each version of MS Office. So do the Microsoft Binary (DOC et al.) formats. Major revisions for DOC were on 2009-07-13, 2010-06-07, 2012-01-20, and 2014-07-31. Mark Bourne wrote For compatibility between MS Office and LibreOffice, the older .doc format is more reliable. Probably only because of the mechanics of this format (it is effectively a memory dump to file). There have been many recent improvements to LO with respect to supporting OOXML. The level of support may not be equal to that for the MS Binary formats (yet) but it hopefully will be in the not-too-distant future. TDF has partner organisations working on these improvements. List of links to recent (2013-2014) blog posts about improvements here: http://en.libreofficeforum.org/node/7505#comment-34131 Mark Bourne wrote From my understanding, Office Open XML (OOXML - the format used in docx, xlsx, and related files) is a supposedly open standard. i.e. anyone can get the details of how to read and write files in that format. But that standard allows some data to be included in an application-specific format, which MS does to make it easier for themselves to port MS Office to using it. Unfortunately that means it's not so easy for anyone else to figure out how to read and write those parts of the file. These compatibility blobs only exist in OOXML Transitional; OOXML Strict essentially eliminates them.
