Re: Installation Problems.
Granted that in 2020 it feels odd to still be buying DVD's with the software on it but there is still a legitimate market for it. I agree that there is the possibility to get things you don't want with it but there are also folks playing it straight. They add value by including extras, one vendor in particular has issued a new DVD yearly, they include a custom windows installer, all the language packs, lots of free fonts, bunches of added templates and manuals. The DVD includes Windows and Mac binaries. They are clear in their marketing material that support, for everything other then the installer, comes from the AOO community. They also charge are very reasonable price of around 10 USD or 8 Euro. On Mon, Feb 24, 2020 at 10:05 PM Bruce Pierson wrote: > I would be wary of getting it on a CD these days.

Re: Installation Problems.
I would be wary of getting it on a CD these days. There are more than a few vendors that will sell you a CD with Open Office on it. However, the CD may have other little nasties on it as well most of which you do not want. If you have to pay for the software beware. “ *Avoid pronouncing the phrases everyone else does.

Re: Installation Problems.
There is a long history of OpenOffice.org being offered on CD and DVD. This was at times with the blessings of the old owners of the Intellectual Property rights to the URL, Sun Microsystems, and numerous individual boosters, and some commercial operations. The practice went on after the IP was sold to Oracle and then granted to Apache Software Foundation with regards to boosters and commercial operations right down to today. You may want to nudge folks to only using the download from the openoffice.org URL, that Apache OpenOffice continues to use, but no one should act surprised that some folks will have acquired it via CD or DVD.

Schreibrechte
Hallo und einen guten Abend, ich habe auf meinem Windows PC ein Tabellendokument (mit Macros) erstellt. Dieses Dokument kann ich ohne Probleme aufrufen, ändern und auch speichern. Ich habe somit Lese- und Schreibrechte! Lade ich die Datei (Tabellendokument) auf mein Android Tab. kann ich die Datei zwar öffnen (nur mit Leserecht) aber nicht mehr speichern. Ich nutze auf meinem Tab. Andropenoffice! Programminformation: Es bestehen keine Schreibrechte! Wie und wo kann ich diese Rechte vom PC auf mein Tab. übertragen? Ich habe dieses Problem leider nicht lösen können. Über eine Problemlösung würde ich mich sehr freuen. Vielen Dank für Ihre Mühe. MfG Immanuel Schmechel

You can download an reinstall OO 3.2; it should then be capable of being uninstalled. Or, you could download a utility such as CCleaner and tell it to remove OpenOffice 3.2; OO 4.1.7 should then install. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

The usefulness of automatic page numbering, of course, is that you can modify the text or layout of the document with the page numbers being preserved and updating appropriately and not being displaced. If you need such a random collection of numbers and the document is at a late stage of preparation - when changes to the text are less likely - it may be simpler just to position manual page numbers where the footer would be, without having any footer. If you need a footer for other information on such pages but want page numbers only on some, you can still do this. Create a Frame to contain the required page number (it doesn't need to have any border) and ensure that it is anchored To Page. Position the frame in the footer where is needs to appear. Because it is anchored to the page, not to anything within the footer, it will not be repeated within the footer on other pages. The second technique is also more robust to changes in paper size, margins, and so on, as well as to font substitution on a foreign system. to report: I believe your solutions are probably in better accord with the "principle of simplicity" than what I chose but I hadn't realized the power of the 'manual page-break' function before and got fascinated. I made three page styles, 'Roman ix', 'Roman xi' and 'Roman xiii' each with a footer but with the corresponding Roman numeral (but not as a 'field'). on reflection it probably would have sufficed to make one such page. I believe the author is satisfied, and I learned some valuable tricks thanks to you, Rory and Andrew; much appreciated! f. -- Felmon Davis - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
