To ALL: There seem to be a spate of reports of flaws in version 3.0
and a revision is due out, shortly, I guess. Since I have it on this
computer, I was just wondering if there were any flaws to writer that
would hamper someone who is only going to use it to write personnel
letters with no fancy borders and such? :-\
I'm of the above: OOo.3. installed on an Apple iMac OS X version
10.5.5 Intel Core 2 Duo.
The problem seems to only happen in Text Document and at the moment
with the fonts Harrington or Berkeley (I've not obviously tried them
all). I'm using,Times New Roman now.
The error is spasmodic, when I'm making some correction of a letter or
word, or cutting or copy and pasting.
This same problem even followed me into the 'Reports on faults' when I
was making my comments.
Of course, it maybe and possibly is, some odd thing I'm doing at my
end; a ticked or unticked box or something.
I've just re-downloaded OOo.3. kindly E-mailed me by Open Office org.
after reporting this fault?
I have had no trouble with this very short piece which would have
given trouble before.
I use, Text document, a lot and always - I'll report back in a few days.
Regards, John E. Allen.
