Hello Adam, Which version of OpenOffice.org did you install? I use 3.0.0 on my MacBookPro without problems. Maybe there's a problem with the fonts installation? You may have to force cold restart (push the start button till your laptop stops). -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua 3.0.1 on a iMac Intel DualCore Leopard and brazilian OOo Aqua 3.0.0 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
