Hi :) Attachments get removed before the email gets to the list. Can you upload the files somewhere and then give us a link? Alternatively you could use my private email address (use copy&paste rather than just "Reply to") to send the attachments to although i only have a limited idea of what might have happened.
The Doc format is much better than the DocX for sharing with other people. Even DocX files made in MS Office 2007 tend to go a bit wrong when viewed with MS Office 2010 and similarly the other way around. Of course any MS Office before their 2007 can't read DocX at all. MS Office 2007 was the first MS Office to be able to read OdT format but they use the old spec despite the newer spec being easier to find out about and implement. The DocX spec is very secretive and even MS don't implement it properly. So, it's better to use the older Doc format so that almost anyone can open the document. To increase compatibility with MS Office go up to the "Tools" menu and then right down to "Options" at the bottom. The pop-up contains many useful settings and is well worth having a look at but for now just click on the + beside "Load/Save, then click on "General". Somewhere in the middle is "ODF Format Version". Change the drop-down beside that from "1.2 Extended (recommended)" to "1.0/1.1". Files saved in that format should be easily opened in MS Office just by double-clicking on them. If you look just under there you can change the "Text Document" format to "Microsoft Word (98/2000/Xp)". Similarly for Spreadsheets and presentations although for those 2 you need to scroll back up the list 2 places instead of just 1 otherwise documents get saved as templates which gets really messy. Good luck and regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: soumalya ray <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, 20 July, 2011 8:44:05 Subject: [libreoffice-users] formatting problem with table in libreoffice writer hi, just started using libreoffice in ubuntu lucid,version is 3.3.2. i tried to insert a table & wrote something in it.saved it as .docx and closed libreoffice.then again opened the document using libreoffice itself.the last column of the table is going outside the page boundary.this made the last column invisible for all practical purposes. i would like to know the mistake i am doing and how to solve it. i am attaching 3 files here-- .odt-what i have written .doc-what i am expecting .docx-what i am getting please help me and thanks in advance -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] 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 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] 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
