You don't need to install that package at all, see

"Just like the Liberation fonts are metrically-compatible with Times
New Roman (Liberation Serif), Arial (Liberation Sans), and Courier
(Liberation Mono), the Carlito and Caladea fonts (both now provided
with LO) are metrically-compatible with Calibri and Cambria
respectively. This means that if you use Carlito instead of Calibri,
your document will have the same layout as if you used Calibri." (via

[libreoffice-users] Howto fix missing icons from PPA installation

2017-10-25 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
In a completely Linux Mint 18.2 fresh install I added the
LibreOffice's PPA repository as always and did a un dist-upgrade.
After that, it was working but with no icons at all. Exactly as
described in 
https://askubuntu.com/questions/942140/icons-missing-from-libreoffice-toolbars/969290#969290

When trying to select another theme from Toos > Options > View, the
program stops responding.

After tested several alternatives the solution was install the breeze icon theme

apt install libreoffice-style-breeze

Re: [libreoffice-users] remove older version

2015-07-04 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
2015-07-04 13:01 GMT-03:00 Thomas Blasejewicz ny...@hb.tp1.jp:
 Good evening

 I made a fresh install of Mint 17.1, 64-bit on a Dell Optiplex 745 machine.
 Mint comes with LibreOffice 4.2.6.3.
 Since there is a newer version (4.4.4.3) available, I downloaded and
 installed it.
 However, I now have under (Mint) Menu - Office TWO Libreoffice items
 each (Writer, Calc etc.).
 In the newer version I am not able to modify / install an extensions.
 I get errors like:

 Error while installing extension Alternative searching. The error
 message is: an error occurred during file opening
 The extension will not be installed.

 Error reading data from the Internet.
 Server error message: Could not read status line: Connection reset by peer.

 General Internet error has occurred.

 Somehow I suspect, the old package gets in the way (this kind of trouble
 with extensions has NEVER happened
 on any computer with ANY OS before) and I would like to remove it ...
 but don't know how.
 Software Manager and Synaptic Package Manger show only ONE version of
 LibreOffice: 4.4.4.3.

 Is there a trick to do this?
 What are the chances this will solve the extension problem?
 I am also wondering why the newer version did not replace the older one.

 Thank you.
 Thomas


To have the latest version I recommend remove installed versions, add
PPA repositories and install from there.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LO 4.4 is supposed to import Pagemaker files? How?

2015-05-20 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 Thank you everyone for suggestions.  I apologize for the delay in testing
 and replying.

 I tried www.zamzar.com but Pagemaker 6.5 files can't be converted using this
 service.  I am pretty sure this was close to the last version available on
 the Mac platform.

 Where do I find the documentation of which versions of Pagemaker should work
 with LO?  I don't remember reading which versions were designed to work in
 the docs but it quite likely that I didn't find the right URL.


The guys from Document Libertaion Project should have the answer.

 Which OS are you using?  err, just platform would be good enough tbh;
 Windows, GnuLinux, Mac or Bsd?

right now is to be used under windows, but ideally for gnu/linux  windows

 With Linux  (such as Ubuntu/Mint, Redhat, openSuSE, Mageia etc) it might be
 better to get a separate program to generate QR-codes or bar-codes.  Often
 one package lets you choose either.

 I've seen your message also on Facebook. What do you want to do and have
 you a link for me to see this popup you talked about?

 Kind regards

I think the popup opens because Ledio clicks on a link pointing to a
mail address (l10n+subscr...@global.libreoffice.org), what he has to
do is to write an email to that address proposing his will to create a
native lang project.

 In the system I'm developing, I need to generate some odt documents.
 Knowing a little about 'odt' file structure, I had the following idea:
 - Create a document in libreoffice
 - transform 'content.xml' with freemarker

 But the generated document dont open and I dont know why. 'content.xml'
 seems perfect.

 This is my 'template' that opens pefectly.
 boleto-xdoc-in.odt

 An this is the generated document that dont open.

 In same context, is there any tool that can 'diagnose' my files, showing
 exactly what is the error?

 4.0.4.2 - 4.1.5.3

 After performing a cleanup on the volume there is only 207MB
 available on C: on a Windows XP system on which I'm working. After I
 specified that LO be installed on volume D: the installer still
 requires 427MB on C:. I hesitate to compress volume C:.

 Volume, Size, Available, Needed C:, 15GB, 207MB, 427MB D:, 107GB,
 61GB, 352MB F:, 16GB, 6694MB, 0KB

 Is there any way to avoid using C:?

 (Growl! Windows. Bah, humbug!)


 Do you have used already methods to get more free place on drive C?
 Empty trash.
 Empty all temp or tmp folders.
 Empty the cache of your broswer and/or move the location for the cache of
you browser to drive D.

 You can try this:
 (1)
 Uninstall the old version before you install the new one. Then there
might be enough place on C, because the new version isn't significant
larger then the old one.

 (2)
 1. Unpack to a folder on D. The installer has a button to choose the
destination.
 2. Use the custom installation. There you can set the destination folder.

 If it still does not work, then the default temp folder can not grow
large enough. You can try to set a new location for the temp folder in the
Windows XP settings.

 (3)
 Or a different way. Do not install using the installer, but make an
administative installation. You will get a full usable LO, but no system
integration. Therefore double click a file to open it in LO will not work
out-of-the-box. You can put a link to soffice.exe on your desktop to get a
quick access, or you assign the file name extension to soffice.exe later on
explicitly by using open with


Another copuple of things to increase available space on drive C are:

   - Change the virtual memory location, if it's still on drive C move to D
   - A more complex one is to increase size of partition C

Re: [libreoffice-users] Creating EPUB e-books

2013-05-30 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
  There has been some discussion about creating EPUB e-books from
  OpenOffice and LibreOffice.  One method I recently came across is to
  use Sigil to create the EPUB from HTML.  OpenOffice and LibreOffice
  can save in HTML format, which can then be used as a source for this
  application.
 
  http://code.google.com/p/sigil/

 Perhaps better solutions can be found in using the elaix extension or by
 saving as docxml and thenfeeding the result through pandoc

what about this extension

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: automatically insert characters to complete paragraphs

2013/4/4 Urmas davian...@gmail.com

 Due to certain requirements need to add hyphens at the end of each
 paragraph to complete the final line. Is there a way to do it
automatically
 so I can create a template?


 You can try setting the right aligned tabulator along the paragraph's
right margin with hyphen filler. Then it would be sufficient to add a
single tab character to close the line.

Tried to do that but nothing happens.
Each line has different long so I set a tab at 17cm (which is the right
margin), right type with hyphen filler but, as said, nothing happens. I'm
using 4.0.1 in Debian Wheezy.

 cells, so it could be read from bottom to top. Is that possible?

 Why rotate 360 degrees?  You end up with the exact orientation that you
start with?

Yes, my bad.
What I was looking for is to rotate 90° counterclockwise rotation using
4.0. That option didn't seem to work but now I can say that is related to a
propietary format file. After being redone the table from scratch the
rotation works just fine.



thanks, ;-)

[libreoffice-users] relative chart title/subtitle in Calc

2013-02-21 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
Hi, at work we need to plot several charts from a spreadsheet. One per row,
with four values to be charted.
My question is whether it is possible to add some automation of title and
subtitle, pointing each one to a relative position.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Problems with Merge in Draw

2013-01-21 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
2013/1/21 Kai Bettzieche kai.bettzie...@gmx.net

 Dear all,

 I'm experiencing a problem with Draw's function merge:

 As you can see in attachment #1 (map_1.png), I'm trying to build a map
(yeah, not exactly, what Draw is there for ..)
 Now I'd like to merge the roads (the long grey boxes) with the
corners (the grey circles).

 Result: see attachment #2 (map_2.png) - even though I definetly pressed
merge, the shapes do not get merged at all.

 The issue is reproducable:

 Create a circle with width=1cm and height 1cm.
 Create a rectangle with width=1cm and any height.
 Align the bottom centre of the rectanlge with the centre of the circle.
 Now rotate the rectangle by 60 degree (120 work as well), rotating point
is the bottom centre of the rectangle.
 Now merge: The result shows anything but a merge.

 Tested with:
 Libre Office for PortableApps.com on Win7 as well as Libre Office on
Ubuntu (current versions each of them)

 Could you advise, please, and tell me what to do, to get those shapes
merged properly?



 Thank you and kind regards,
 Kai

 p.s. attached you can find the odp file, too - just in case ..

Remenber that this list doesn't support attached files.

About the issue, try selecting Shapes  Merge from contextual menu. I've
just got a merged shape using LO 4.0.0 RC1.

And finally, use TDF binaries from libreoffice.org/download


regards, hope this helps

  Are you using Calc to do this? If not what are you using? How are
you setting up your calculations? When you created the time format, how did
you do it? (I need a step by step description.)
  I opened Calc and formated column A with HH:MM:SS.000 in the Format
code box. Then I clicked the green check. What I saw in the Format list was
13:37:46.000. Then I entered times in A1 and A2. Finally I entered =A1-A2
in A3. I got an answer in the format I had created for column A.


Hi Dan, thanks for the quick response

I found the problem, my locale setting does not recognize the '.' as
decimal separator. So, replacing it witch a ',' did the trick.

 If the first three columns (A-C) are 'lastname' (A), 'middle-name'(B),

Re: [libreoffice-users] Adding a footer to a page

2012-05-14 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 On Mon, May 14, 2012 at 7:27 PM, webmaster-Kracked_P_P
 webmas...@krackedpress.com wrote:
 Were you one the 2nd page when you tried to add the footer?

 Yes, of course! I even just tried again to be sure.


 Was there some odd/even page formatting controls enabled?


 No, not that I see. I had turned off the footer on that one page specifically.


 Why you are having the problem may be some portion of the coding that sees
 the odd pages with footers and then will not allow you to create/edit ones
 on the even pages.


 I do not think that it is an odd / even problem. I specifically
 removed that footer from the single page. Oin fact, I think that I had
 to give the page a custom style. I just checked Format - Page -
 Organizer and I see that the page has name No Footer. I cannot seem
 to change it to the default style, though. If I remove the name then I
 get a message that the name is already in use. And none of the options
 on that page set the page to the default style.


 I currently do not use 3.5.x.  I use 3.4.6 on Ubuntu 10.04/GNOME and
 12.04/MATE.  I should try it now that it is at .3, but will stick with
 3.4.6 for a bit longer on my default Ubuntu 10.04LTS desktop.



 How about this, as a work around for now:
 

 do a Edit/Select All and copy the document.

 Then, while the original document is open, to a File/New/Text Document and
 then enable the footers option.

 Then paste the text to the new document and deal with the footers.

 This should work.  If it does not, then there must be some problem in the LO
 version itself.


 Actually, I tried that but 1) I would like to learn to use LO
 properly, and 2) this page has some killer tables that are difficult
 to copy. I might even have to open another thread on that if I cannot
 figure it out of find any relevant information in the fine manual.

did you check what page style is associated each page to?

Re: [libreoffice-users] ePub?

2012-05-03 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
     Even if you use this extension, the results you get depends upon
 the complexity of the original document. A simple text document ought to
 convert well. My documents contain text, figures in frames, tables, and
 two different types of lists. I have to use another program, Sigil,
 designed to edit ePUB documents to get the results that I want.
     As an example, the following link contains two files named
 Introducing Base (ODT file at the top of the list; ePUB at the bottom of
 it):
 http://www.odfauthors.org/libreoffice/english/base-guide/draft-lo3.4.
     I did not use writer2epub. Instead, I used Calibre for the
 conversion from ODT to ePUB and the Sigil to do quite a bit of editing.
 Both of these programs are open source. (Feel free to download the ODT
 version of Introducing Base and then use writer2epub to convert it to
 ePUB. Then compare the difference.)
     I just did a simple test. I had a simple text document containing
 only several paragraphs that were first line indented that I converted
 using writer2epub. The first line indented paragraph style has a setting
 for the amount of indention, but the conversion did not include this
 setting.
     To get really good results converting ODT documents to ePUB, you
 need to understand styles and xhtml. (The underlying files for a ePUB
 document are written in xhtml.) It also takes a considerable amount of
 time to edit the
 xhtml to give the document the quality you want it to have.



I had no need to create epub files but it's always good to have
information from someone that if have done

:-)

 if you want to work with ODT files without even using LO (or any other

 so much simpler, and at the end, you use PHP to code it. The support is also
 very good, via the forum.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Converting .odt text into a table

2011-12-27 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 Is there an easy way to do this?

 I have a number of documents with tables of informatio in them that
 were typed in as text, so they're not really in tables.  Is there an
 wasy way to convert these into real tables?

After select the text to convert you may choose Table - Convert - Text to Table

To achieve the goal you need a common separator, such as a tab,
semicolon or paragraph. Also, you can type the character that you want
to use as a column marker.

hope that could be helpful

Re: [libreoffice-users] exported PDF file size

2011-05-02 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 I was wondering how this has gone so far?  Have you been able to get 
 significant

 reductions?  Pdf itself is a compressed format so it might be possible to 
 simply
 increase the compression rate although that might significantly reduce 
 quality.


 I sometimes open pdf in gimp and re-save as gif but again there is sometimes a
 loss of quality and anyway it might well not be appropriate for what you need.

 If the 20Mb size is inconvenient for email or posting onto a website then
 perhaps a different metod of transferring the file might be better?  
 Usb-stick,
 memory card, Cd, perhaps one of those tiny business card Cds, and then normal
 postage?

Hi Tom, I've been playing around with formats trying to get a
significant file size reduction but just a few kb in some files.
Others became to loosy to read them.

Re: [libreoffice-users] exported PDF file size

2011-05-02 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 I have been watching this thread and have to ask the obvious question. Are
 the pictures sized to the desired size before inserting into the document? If
 not try that. I have found that can make a huge difference. I know many
 people keep pictures in very high resolutions which is fine, but if you just
 put a large picture into the document and resize it there it still takes up
 the full  storage size of the original so thus makes very large documents

Hi

almost all of them are screenshots, but not full screen images just a
menu or a bar for instance

  I have been watching this thread and have to ask the obvious question. Are
  the pictures sized to the desired size before inserting into the document? 
  If
  not try that. I have found that can make a huge difference. I know many
  people keep pictures in very high resolutions which is fine, but if you 
  just
  put a large picture into the document and resize it there it still takes up
  the full  storage size of the original so thus makes very large documents
  which translate into large PDFs.

 Hi

 Likely they are not too large, but have you looked at their actual sizes to
 verify their size?

well, certainly not. Now can't access the folder containing images but
will check images size.

 Hi All,

 I have also been watching this thread with interest.

 For comparison, after much testing and manipulation I have been able to get
 quite respectable PDF files which illustrate ~40 high resulotion screen
 images.

 The PNG files, which show various tasks, range from 5KB upto 189.6 KB.

 Together they total 2.9 KB.

 These images were created using Shutter using default settings.

 Merged with a  relatively small HTML file of 43KB, they merge to a 2MB PDF
 (note the PNG are converted to JPG).

 This process is done outside LO but illustrates that image rich files can be
 created that can be presented in relatively small PDF.

 Another example, using LO...

 6.8 MB ODT file with detailed high resolution maps could be compressed to a
 2.6MB PDF file. I could of made the resulting PDF smaller by sacrificing map
 quality but decided that this was a good balance between size and image
 clarity.

 On a side note - experimentation has shown that tables can cause file bloat
 more than some image types. Experiment with empty files to see what gets the
 best result.

 When creating technical reports I always insert an image twice as large as
 the size they will be presented in the report and allow 60% compression when
 creating the PDF. This seems to be a good combination.

Nice tips Simon

thanks

Re: [libreoffice-users] exported PDF file size

2011-04-29 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez

 I think the only thing that can make an effective difference is ro reduce
 JPG compression and the image resolution in the PDF Options screen
 But you should test some different values to find out one setup that fits
 your needs and keep your images readable.


tried that but snapshots become unreadable, too blurry even with 95% quality
compression ratio

Re: [libreoffice-users] exported PDF file size

2011-04-29 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez

 Hi :)
 I tend to save pictures in 3 different formats to see which gives the best
 result for the least size.  I would always keep a copy of the original.

 Gif tends to be about 1/10th the size of jpgs or pngs but it doesn't work
 well
 on smoothly changing shades so some of the pictures on pages 15, 17, 19,
 20, 26,
 57, 79, 81, 111, 116, 120, 127, 135, 136 and 139 might not work well but
 all the
 rest will probably be better as gifs.

 To change formats in Ubuntu just install gimp


I've got it


 and use Save As ...  the change the file-ending from .jpg (for example)
 to
 .gif.  Sometimes png is lighter-weight or sometimes jpg although usually
 those 2
 formats tend to be better for photos.  Png tends to be higher quality than
 jpg
 but it is also often lighter-weight.  Not always tho which is why i try all
 3
 before committing myself to 1.

 Note that just changing the format of an image can cause it to degrade a
 bit or
 even a lot and changing the entire document to pdf can cause further errors
 to
 creep into images.  At the moment all your images looked fine to a quick
 squint
 test.

 Do you have all the separate images available to work from?  Can you create
 a
 new folder for testing different formats?


will play with that

thanks

 Have made it into a zip file that would decrease the file and should not
 affect the file quality.


even using tar.bz2 format compression there's no a significant difference in
resulting size

Re: [libreoffice-users] question

2011-04-12 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez

 Hy Everyone!

 I'm new here, don't know how this mailing list works, so sorry in advance
 for every stupidity from me.
 I'd like to ask if the libreoffice developers are planning to make a GUI
 like the one used in Office 2007/2010?
 I like that style quite much and I find it much more useful than any
 before.
 Or because not everyone likes it, it could be an optional GUI, or maybe a
 plugin or extension.


I have to disagree with you, the way how LibreOffice shows the 'contextual
tools'
is much more useful than the ribbon alternative.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with Impress.

2011-04-04 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez

 Ok. I manually imported an image. I then stretched it to take up the full
 size of the slide. I then sent to back. I saved it and re-opened it and it
 appears now.

 However, in my mind, we shouldn't have to do it that way. It's a pain and
 not very intuitive. We should be able to just change the background on a
 slide by slide basis.


Sure, I agree with you

2011-04-01 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 So are you saying not to replace the background on those slides but instead 
 import the image as a picture and then send it to back?

as I said on previous message my problem was related to master pages,
in that case setting a different background on each master page didn't
work. But importing the images and then send them to back did. So,
give it a try and tell us.

 Daniel

 How are installing LIbreoffice?

 From the Ubuntu helpfiles
 https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+question/147517

 They recommended installing through terminal the first time using the
 following instructions:

 Open a terminal from Applications→Accesories→Terminal and copy and
 paste the rows below
 please copy a row a time then press enter:

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install libreoffice-gnome libreoffice-pdfimport
 libreoffice-presentation-minimizer
 sudo apt-get install libreoffice-presenter-console
 libreoffice-report-builder-bin mozilla-libreoffice

 give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you
 type it, then press enter.

 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice 

 I used these instructions for a Ubuntu 10.10 derivative (Pinguy) and had
 no problems.


Hi Jay

I was omitting the first step, remove openoffice. So after

apt-get purge openoffice*

everything works like a charm

Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with Impress.

2011-03-31 Thread Daniel A. Rodriguez
 I posted this before but haven't seen an answer in awhile so I'm doing it
 again.

 I hope this is the right place to report issues. Perhaps I'm just not using
 the program correctly.

 I made a slideshow presentation using the basic default theme. I changed the
 background to a single jpg graphic I found which was applied to the whole
 thing. However, I wanted to change the background to something else for two
 slides.

 I changed the background on those two slides and told it not to apply it to
 the whole presentation.

 I saved the presentation.

 Even though I saved it, when I opened my presentation later it did not save
 the backgrounds on those two slides. It changed the backgrounds back to the
 master background.

 How can I get that to save?


Hi Troy

I had a similar problem using master pages

Ismael Fanlo from spanish community found the solution[1]. Where you
need a different background pictures must be inserted and then,
arrange  send to back.

hope that helps, regards
