Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: 3.4
I have the 3.4.6 install files, so if I was to make them available, I would need to know which OS you use [Windows, Linux, Mac] so I do not need to upload all of them to a place where you can download them. BUT, I remembered there the LO Archive pages is located, so I do not need to do that. http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/3.4.6.2/ This is the direct link for Windows, but you would need the help packs as well. http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/3.4.6.2/win/x86/LibO_3.4.6rc2_Win_x86_install_multi.exe On 07/20/2012 09:22 AM, anne-ology wrote: Please explain further ... are you perchance saying that knowing my OS, you could access my computer for any file on it?

Hi :) Lol, blimey! Xp is not the world's most secure OS but even so it's still pretty difficult for most people to gain access to your machine. It's still best not to give out your ip address to everyone if you can avoid it jic though, especially in on-line forums or mailing-lists. It's usually possible to set-up some special area that can be shared with other computers on your house or work-place network but even that can be quite tricky. Trying to get your machine to act like a server is quite challenging. If you want to share files about LibreOffice with people on this mailing-list then it's probably easiest to create an account at Nabble and reply to any of the posts in the appropriate thread here. When you click on Reply here you are given a message-box with a few buttons above it. The More button allows you to upload a file. It works by pasting a link into the message part of your reply so that even non-Nabble users can see it. Tim was talking about something else completely, i think. I think he was saying that if you tell him your OS he can find the appropriate installer files that are hidden away somewhere on the TDF/LO hosting-servers.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: 3.4
If you have the proper software firewall installed, I use Comodo [free version] for my Windows machines, then it is very hard even for the experts to get access to your computer. I did not see the start of the thread, so I did not know if you used Windows or something else. I use Windows Vista and XP [both 32 bit], but my main systems run Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04 [both 64-bit]. I am slowly installing 3.5.5 on my systems. I realized that on my Vista laptop I still had 3.4.6 on it, but the others have/had 3.5.4 until the upgrading. Here is the link to all of the older version of LibreOffice. http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ If you go to the box version, you get the older version of the DVD.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: 3.4
Even with setting up a shared system, it can be tricky to get it working properly. Matching workgroups and other options can get people confused. Then getting some setting to be able to share read-only or fully shared. Then getting different OSs to share with each other on a private network. With a router involved, it can make life safer, but software firewalls are a must. I have a private network involving 3 routers, a switch and an old rack-mounter 24-port hub. I need to share 4 printers with all my systems while I allow friends in my building wireless access to my Net connection while not giving them any ability to even see my printers and computers. Talk about doing some weird network setups.

[libreoffice-users] Re: [3.4] Cutting section in PDF file?
I used LibreOffice to save the PDF as TIFF, opened it in PaintShopPro (7), and removed the section. But when I re-open the TIFF in LibreOffice so I can save it back to PDF, it's displayed as a very tiny image (about 1/3 of the original as displayed in PaintShopPro), even with Zoom=100%. Does someone know why Draw does this? Is there a way to do this in LibreOffice so I can avoid the PDF - TIFF - PDF shuffle?

Thanks guys for the tips. Turns out that after opening the TIFF file in Draw, I just had to click on the reduced picture and pull the little green boxes so that it would fill the entire page. No idea why Draw starts with a reduced picture, but it did the job.
