For a clean install of any distro,  the data that was on the drive is
completely wiped, then the distro is installed.

To get your old files back, you have to copy them from an
archived/backup source.  If you didn't burn them to CD/DVD, or put
them on a _second_ drive used only for archiving  data, you have lost
all that data.

If you did burn them to CD/DVD, or use a second drive purely for
archival purposes, then find the user directory  that you backed up,
and copy  the entire contents of the autocorr, autotext, config,
wordbook, and template directories over to your new installation.

I _think_ you are using one of the no-go variants of OOo.  The default
no-go installation omits  a number of features that people find
useful, and adds several show stopping  bugs, that should  require
immediate recall, and be  fixed, because  their  inefficiency experts
live in Fantasy Land.(To  call them show stopping bugs, is to
underestimate the  degree to which they cripple the functionality of
OOo.   On a scale on  1 -  100, in importance to fix, these rate at
least 10 000, if not 100 000.

>And why would Fedora install OOo without installing all its features?

The theory is that people don't use the features that aren't included.
