Re: OpenOffice Word Spacing

2014-03-28 Thread Martin Groenescheij
First the good news in OpenOffice you can use many different spaces by 
Inserting Special Characters for example U+2004 (scroll 4/5 down to the 
bottom) is probably what the user wants.


The bad news is that I couldn't get AutoCorrect to accept this, but Find 
and Replace works fine.


In the professional printing industry they use _en_ and _em_ spaces see 
below:


 * An em space is the same width as the point size of the font you use.
   For example, if you use a 10-point font, an em space is 10 points wide.
 * An en space is half the width of an em space.
 * A numeric space is the same width as the font's zero (0) character.
   All digits are typically the same width. This space is useful for
   aligning numbers in a column without using tabs.
 * A thin space is one-twelfth the width of an em space. A thin space
   is often used when a very small space is needed to separate two
   characters--for example, between a number and the unit of measure
   that follows it, or between characters that appear too close
   together--for example, /).
 * A nonbreaking space is the same width as the default space width for
   the font.

Apart from this I found the following spaces in the Windows Character Map:

 *   en Quad U+2000
 *   em Quad U+2001
 *   en Space U+2002
 *   em Space U+2003
 *   Three-Per-Em Space U+2004
 *   Four-Per-EM Space U+2005
 *   Six-Per-Em Space U+2006
 * etc

First the good news in OpenOffice you can use most of these spaces by 
Inserting Special Characters for example U+2004 is probably what the 
user wants.


The bad news is that I couldn't get AutoCorrect to accept this, but Find 
and Replace works fine.

 Here's an idea: I haven't tried it, but it may work. Use search and 
 replace.
 Search for a single space (push the space bar once.) Then in the replace
 box, push the space bar 2 or 3 times, or whatever spacing you want. You may
 find you have to defeat the damned styles to do this. That I can't 
 tell you how
 to do.

To do this successfully, you may need to adjust /Format /Autocorrect : Options 
tab and uncheck 'Ignore double spaces' in the [T] column.  

But if you need to adjust interword spacing so specifically, perhaps OpenOffice 
is the wrong tool. Maybe a proper DTP package such as Scribus or Adobe 
Inndesign 

might be better.

Hi. I have been using Open Office for quite a while new and have been very 
satisfied. No problems. I had an email today saying that an update was 
available, so I have spent about an hour downloading it, using up a large 
amount of my allocation of bytes on my server. On completion, I had a message 
to say that there was already a copy of the same prog installed, meaning that I 
had just wasted a lot of time.

Just a little confused. Usually updates are just that, and mean that there is

This is being discussed on the dev list. The OpenOffice project does not 
send personal e-mail notifications (we don't have the e-mail addresses 
of our users!) but it seems this is a notification coming from 
SourceForge, that hosts the OpenOffice downloads and apparently offers a 
service where people can sign up to be notified when a new version of 
OpenOffice (or any other software) is available.


Maybe (but this is not confirmed) the service got confused by the fact 
that we recently started to distribute version 4.1.0-beta. But indeed 
the latest stable version is 4.0.1, and the next stable version, 4.1.0, 
is almost ready and expected to be released by mid-April.

Re: OpenOffice

2014-03-28 Thread ugajin

 

 No, is probably the answer. How large? It is common practice to use two spaces 
between sentences and one between words. However, it is not clear why you would 
want to expand the space between words only without expanding the space 
proportionately for all characters. Also, which Unicode (special) characters 
are you are proposing to use, and how you insert them with the Replace tool?

  No, is probably the answer. How large? It is common practice to use two 
spaces between sentences and one between words. However, it is not clear why 
you would want to expand the space between words only without expanding the 
space proportionately for all characters. Also, which Unicode (special) 
characters are you are proposing to use, and how you insert them with the 
Replace tool?

-A

My suggestion is based on the question the originator of this problem had.
I'm not judging why he want it. All I know is that he is using an other 
character set as we use.
What is good for us English speaking humans doesn't mean that this is 
good for everybody.

This is true, selecting a block of text and increasing the space between

characters will necessarily increase the space between all characters including
the space between words. However, the empty space bar character can be
individually selected and adjusted using this tool. The Find and Replace tool
may help to select all space characters in a document, which may then be
adjusted independently of the unselected text.

Have you tried this yourself. On a large document?
Using  the Insert Special Character where you find different sizes of spaces
together with Find and Replace is much easier to control the exact width.

Is there an option for automatic arrangement of the words of the normal

Here's an idea: I haven't tried it, but it may work. Use search and
replace.
Search for a single space (push the space bar once.) Then in the replace
box, push the space bar 2 or 3 times, or whatever spacing you want. You may
find you have to defeat the damned styles to do this. That I can't
tell you how
to do.

To do this successfully, you may need to adjust /Format /Autocorrect :

Options

tab and uncheck 'Ignore double spaces' in the [T] column.

But if you need to adjust interword spacing so specifically, perhaps

OpenOffice

is the wrong tool. Maybe a proper DTP package such as Scribus or Adobe

Inndesign

might be better.

Screwy font sizes

2014-03-28 Thread M. Michael Pizar
I cannot keep my font appearances consistent throughout my documents.  The
tool bar lists the font and sizes as identical, but they come out different
sizes.  Attached is a screen capture explaining the bug.  I really need to
be able to use Hebrew text within my documents without it skewing my font
appearances.

Spell check;

2014-03-28 Thread Ken
I downloaded the new Open Office, now, I don't have spell check. I read the 
help page, did what they said about sitting it up with English or other 
language as my default. It still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
The older version, it worked great.

Is this on the same system or on different systems?
If on different systems it could be that the font is missing and it uses 
an alternative font.

Re: Calc: Druckbereich ändern in einer Tabelle verändert alle Tabellen

2014-03-28 Thread technik

Hallo Wolfgang,
danke für die Antwort. Ich muss etwas präzisieren. Ich bin davon 
ausgegangen, dass sich die Druckbereiche zuerst einmal automatisch mit 
den eingegebenen Zellen erstellen.
Dann will ich in dem Dokument die Zeile 1 in der Tabelle Sopran als 
Steuerzeile haben. die anderen Datumsangaben sind darin verknüpft.
Wenn ich jetzt die Ansicht auf Seitenansicht stelle und die von oben 
eine Zeile herunterziehe. wirkt sich das in die anderen Tabellen hinein 
aus. In der ersten Tabelle ist der Druckbereich richtig, in den anderen 
jeweils nur eine Zeile.
Du schreibst, das sei so beabsichtigt, aber ich habe in der 
Vergangenheit schon öfter mit dieser Methode in jedem einzelnen Blatt 
die Druckbereiche verändert oder auch ganz ausgeblendet. Dies ging hier 
beim ersten Problem nicht. Ich konnte den Druckbereich nicht verändern. 
(Über Zellschutz wird die leere Zelle ausgedruckt, sinnvollerweise mit 
Hintergrundfarbe ...)


Ich kann manuell Druckbereiche definieren und hinzufügen. Das habe ich 
schon angewandt. Aber das schien früher anders, besser zu gehen. Auf 
jeden Fall ging das mit den Druckbereichen über Seitenansicht früher 
einwandfrei.

in einer Steuerleiste bearbeitbar machen.

Was genau meinst Du mit 'Steuerleiste' und 'bearbeitbar machen'? Filter?


Diese sollte nicht mitgedruckt werden.

Das wird so nicht klappen. Ein Druckbereich ist immer ein einzelner
rechteckiger Ausschnitt. wenn Du Winkel oder unzusammenhängende Bereiche
markierst, bekommst Du automatisch mehrere Druckbereiche. Und jeder
Druckbereich wird auf eine neue Seite gedruckt.

Das einzige was mir dazu einfällt, wäre Format = Zellen = Zellschutz
= [X] Für Ausdruck ausblenden; aber das blendet nur den *Inhalt* der
betreffenden Zelle(n) aus, der *Platz* der Zelle wird trotzdem beim
Ausdruck berücksichtigt.


Zuerst machte ich das in einem extra Blatt, doch das ließ sich nicht
beim Druck ausblenden.
(1. Problem)

Weil Du gar keine Druckbereiche definiert hast; hättest Du das getan,
könntest Du natürlich den auf diesem Blatt weg lassen.


Dann machte ich das in dem ersten Blatt über der Datumsangabe (Sopran)
Verknüpfte alles und ging auf Seitenansicht, zog die erste Zeile
herunter und graute sie so ein.
Folge: die anderen TAbellen waren auch vollständig eingegraut.
(2. Problem)
Warum? Ist das ein Fehler?

Nein, das ist kein Fehler; Du hast einfach nur *überhaupt* keinen
Druckbereich festgelegt. In dem Fall (und nur dann) versucht das
Programm automatisch, Druckbereiche zu setzen, welche alle vorliegenden
Daten umfassen. Sobald Du aber auch nur /einen/ Druckbereich setzt (und
das machst Du mit Deiner Aktion), wird dieser Automatismus deaktiviert,
und es sind *nur* die manuell definierten Druckbereiche gültig.

Du musst also einfach in jedem Blatt den/die betreffenden Bereich/e (z.
B. A1:V2 und A4:V45[1]) markieren und Format = Druckbereiche =
Festlegen (bzw. ... = Hinzufügen) aufrufen.

[1] entweder in zwei separaten Schritten, oder Du markierst den ersten
Bereich, drückst dann die STRG-Taste und hältst sie gedrückt, während Du
weitere Bereiche markierst. Aber wie gesagt, jeder einzelne Druckbereich
wird dann auf eine eigene Seite (oder mehrere, fallszu groß) gedruckt.
Ich befürchte also, das hilft Dir nicht wirklich weiter.

Wolfgang

AW: Writer hebräisch

Hallo Jörg,
Gemeint ist das Verzeichnis der Formatvorlagen rechts neben einem
Dokument (Hierarchisch, Alle Vorlagen
Benutzervorlagen, Verwendete Vorlagen usw.)
Ich denke ebenfalls, dass das nicht geht, weil es unterschiedlich
vorgesehene Formate (Absatz, Zeichen) betrifft.

  Kann ich die erstellte Zeichenvorlage (Benutzervorlage) in das
  Benutzervorlagen - Verzeichnis zu den Absatzvorlagen verschieben
 
 Wahrscheinlich nein.(?) 
 
 Momentan verstehe ich nicht was das Benutzervorlagen - 
 Verzeichnis sein soll, ich kenne nichts unter diesem 
 Begriff. Du wirst erklären müssen, was gemeint ist.
 
 Allgemein werden Absatz- und Zeichenvorlagen innerhalb einer 
 Dokumentvorlage gespeichert, welche auch als
