Open Office

2017-12-03 Thread Teresa Jenner 
I have had you program recommended to me by a friend as my Microsoft
Publisher  2007 had been retired and so all of a sudden I have been unable
to print out any documents from publisher , word, excel and still working.

My 'Question is '  Do you have publisher in your open office, if so would I
still be able to print out my saved work from Publisher.

It does not show Publisher in your logo for Open Office.

Regards

Any ideas?


Maybe you could check how other PDF files are displayed. If the also 
show partial text then there is no issue with the conversion from

OpenOffice to PDF files.
If other PDF files show as icons then the question is how did you 
convert OpenOffice to PDF

So the text that you are pasting in is - unhelpfully - formatted as 
separate lines or paragraphs, broken up by line breaks or paragraph 
breaks, not as a continuous body of text, allowing it to flow 
naturally between lines. Ask the provider why this is.


... and when I look in the "Format" choices, the Wrap choices stay 
grayed even when I highlight text, nothing happens when I select 
"Page wrap.  (or anything else)


Those options are for choosing how text should arrange around a 
graphic inserted into your text document. So they will activate only 
when you select such a graphic. That is not your problem here.



I want the words to fit all the way across the page.


Good: read on.


When I used Microsoft Word many years ago, it always worked.


I'm not at all sure how you can know that whatever text you obtained 
and inserted "years ago" would have contained the same problem as the 
text you are handling now. So we cannot know this. But in any case, 
if you prefer working with Microsoft Word, why not use it? It's still 
available, you know! You are very welcome to use any alternative 
product if you prefer.


Here's (probably) how to solve your problem:
o Go to Tools | AutoCorrect Options... | Options and ensure that 
"Combine single line paragraphs if length greater than X%" is ticked.
o With that option selected, you may need to click Edit... and reduce 
the percentage - perhaps to as low as 5% - depending on the detail of 
your pasted text.

o Select all your pasted text.
o In the Apply Style box (near the left of the Formatting toolbar), 
select the Default paragraph style from the drop-down menu.

o Go to Format | AutoCorrect > | Apply.

Note that this process will change the paragraph style to "Text 
body", so you may need to change it back. Note also that AutoCorrect 
may make some formatting changes that you don't want, so be sure to 
make this change first, before you spend time on formatting your 
document generally.


I trust this helps.

Welches Betriebssystem nutzt Du?
Was bedeutet Systemwechsel?

Wenn ich Deine Mail richtig lese, kannst Du kein neues Dokument speichern
unter >> Speichern unter << ?

It's best when using any file as a template to save it with the new
name before making any changes.

Or make it read only.  However, there is something called "Templates" in
OO.  If you save templates there, you don't have to worry about overwriting.


Or simply call it "filename.ott" instead of "filename.odt". OpenOffice 
will disable "Save" and only allow "Save As" in that case.
