​Hi again. It's likely in this case that our download site would recognize
Windows as the operating system, and present you with the right version for
your tablet. If not,  you could manually choose a Windows download option
from our download site  and see if that works for you. You might also need
to find a 32-bit Java to use.

Once you get your tablet, please let us know how this worked for you.

Good luck.

The Lenova product comes with Windows 10.  Not clear if Windows 10 Home or 
Windows 10 Pro.

The primary issue is what version of what operating system does that
hardware use.

The hardware specs are borderline OK.

RE: Using open office on tablet

2016-05-31 Thread Dennis E. Hamilton
We will need to hear from individuals who use this type of tablet configuration 
with Apache OpenOffice. 

 - Dennis

Meanwhile, here is some general information that may be useful to you. 

The AOO project does not directly test for these kinds of configurations, 
although the software should be able to be installed and run.  Apache 
OpenOffice does not provide any touch and small-screen optimizations.

There is no direct conversion from Word document formats to PDF.  Apache 
OpenOffice would convert from the Word format to its native/internal format and 
from there to PDF.  Full preservation of Word features and formatting is not 
assured in that process.  You would need to test whether the fidelity was 
sufficient for your purpose.

In the US, I only see specifications for a Mix 300 model with 64GB solid-state 
storage.  

Considering that the Lenova MIIX 300 comes with a first-year subscription to 
Office 365 Personal, it may be preferable to take advantage of Word's ability 
to save documents as PDF and also take advantage of the tablet support in that 
software, along with the 1TB OneDrive online storage that is part of the Office 
365 Personal bundle.   I am assuming that the product available in The 
Netherlands has those features the same as they are offered in the US.

Since you can always install Apache OpenOffice and verify its use side-by-side 
with the Office 365 Personal, that might be a good way to proceed. You would 
have a full year to decide whether to renew the Office 365 Personal 
subscription after first learning to use what is already integrated in the 
product and determining whether you can accomplish your work with AOO alone.

Apache OpenOffice is not currently supported on tablets. However, there 
are ports for some devices with certain operating systems. Please see 
our porting page for further details:


http://www.openoffice.org/porting/

There may be other versions/ports available that we are not aware of as 
well. Please be aware that tablet operating systems vary, so a port that 
works on one tablet(operating system) may not work on another.




I am looking at the LENOVO MIIX 300,(10,1" / Atom Z3537F / 2GB / 32GB) OR ASUS 
(Intel Atom, 2 GB, 32 GB Solid State Drive, 10.1 inch).



Does the software incorporate a word to pdf converter?


yes...Apache OpenOffice provides exports to PDF format.



Thanks and Kind Regards,


You're welcome.
