Hi,

It looks like you have "controlled folder access" activated in your
Windows. See:

https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/113430-add-remove-allowed-apps-controlled-folder-access-windows-10-a.html#option1

how to add OpenOffice to the list of allowed programs or how to disable
this function.

I hope it helps.

Regards,

Open Office Writer issue-fuzziness!

2017-12-29 Thread Don Minow

For many years I have been a user of the NeoOffice suite of applications and 
have been satisfied with their performance and operation.



I purchased a new iMac desktop this summer and have noted some 
incompatibilities with it and NeoOffice. I downloaded Apache Open Office 
version 4.1.4 and now use it as my everyday application for text and 
spreadsheets. The iMac is using IO S version 10.13.2/High Sierra
.


However, I have an open issue with OpenOffice Writer. When I enter data, after 
a few seconds the screen text becomes “fuzzy”, obscured and hard to read. In 
addition, I note numerous dim triangles in the margins and body of the screen 
text.  I can clear the "fuzzyness" by 'Selecting All'; the text becomes comes 
clear and legible.  However, the "fuzziness" returns after a few seconds.


I have searched the Open Office help screens and a early version of the users 
manual but I cannot find any reference to the cause and correction method to 
eliminate the fuzziness.


 Thanks in advance for your help.

Open Office Writer Issue

2014-04-23 Thread andrew.2.dunn
Hi,

I am a user of your Apache Open Office product, I have recently experienced 
some problems with my OO Writer files where all my files are returning a mess 
of ASCII Garble instead of the intended text.

Can you help me please, I've checked the online help but I don't see any 
resolution to this issue...?

It is often the case that when an OpenOffice file returns the ASCII filter 
options screen it has become corrupted. Such corruption often occurs with 
improper (too speedy) close down of the computer (not allowing time for 
hardware/software write buffers to flush) or working direct to a USB stick and 
improper observance of correct USB removal protocols.

Rename the files to type .zip (at operating system level) and see if an archive 
utility will open the file. Your content should be in content.xml
If the files don't open the archive may be damaged. How much (if any) is 
recoverable depends on which repair utility you use.

If the files don't open with an archive utility then they are damaged. If they 
do open with an archive utility, but not with OpenOffice, a new OpenOffice user 
Profile may help - details on how to do this are at 

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=74t=12426. 

I haven't used a zip repair utility in a long time - a Google search throws up 
http://www.diskinternals.com/zip-repair/

Having in the past used several diskinternals utilities, I'd suggest that one.  
Best to work on a copy of the damaged file(s)

Hi Rory,

What repair utility is ideal for this situation, as I need to salvage as much 
as possible, there is lots of files that are effected.

Regards

Andrew

Hmm Andrew is saying that all of his files were effected.  Short
of something that corrupted the entire hard drive that would be very
unusual.

A few questions:

1) Did you change anything recently on your computer, since the last
time you successfully worked with these files?  For example, did you
upgrade OpenOffice?

2) What OS and version are you running?

3) What kind of documents are these?  What are the file extension?

4) Can you try loading these files on another machine?  Does that work?

Regards,

-Rob
