Well, is it just for reading a .docx?
So, you can use MS-Word viewer.

Objet: Opening docx documents in OpenOffice

When I try to open a .docx document in OpenOffice I just get a blank screen.  
Is OpenOffice compatible with .docx documents or how can I make it compatible.

OpenOffice at FOSDEM 17: Call for papers

[Andrea Pescetti]

The Open Document Editors webroom is back at FOSDEM and OpenOffice 
presentations are of course welcome.


Please submit talk proposals by 5 December 2016; please note that, due 
to constraints from the organizers, we won't be able to extend the 
deadline, so expect a reminder a few days before the deadline but do 
submit on time!


FOSDEM is 4-5 February 2017 in Brussels, Belgium.

More on the blog (since the call for papers is better suited for the 
blog, I've decided to go ahead and post it directly there):


https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/open_document_editors_devroom_at

Feel free to ask here for any clarifications.

Regards,
  Andrea.

when the translation is good then there is no reason to keep it. I think 
Mechtilde has the knowledge to know what the comments mean.


But it would be also OK to post them here. We translate it and Patricia 
can put the English comments back to the code. Whatever works best.

Is there a translation tool that works better on source code comments?

If not, would it be OK to post some here and request translations from
humans who know both German and English?

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.  If OO doesn't open a docx try 
AbiWord; that has opened docx documents that OO failed to open, although I have 
run into some docx that neither would open.

Hello

Apache OpenOffce can open *.docx documents. I did it at least today.
