Hi Miroslaw I needed some delay to check what software my friend had used : it was Pages , and I was using LO 3.5 Thx to your advice, I've installed LO 3.6.4.3 and the problem has disappeared. I now can read the Mac docs.

I have not kept up with this thread, since I am not a Mac person, but I have 2 friends that are and I keep them up on the availability of the new versions. I have been using 3.5.7 till 3.6.4 came out. So would they if they took my advice. Also, this email seemed to have been delayed since you talk about 3.6.4 coming out next week, when it has been out since the 5th or 6th, and I just got this email. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
