When I moved from Ubuntu's Go-oo version to Oracle's version on the
OOo web site, I noticed that there is a new listing on the
"Gnome Panel>  Applications>  Office"
called
"OpenOffice.org 3.2 Printer Administration".

What is it used for?  The Help section inside OOo 3.2.1 does not
have any listing for it.  I checked the Document Project linked from the
OOo site and I did not find a reference for it either, or at least my
searches did not find any.
What did you search on?  When I open the help and search (using the
Find tab in the application help) on "printer administration" I get a
result, a help page titled: "Setting up Printer, Fax and Fonts Under
UNIX Based Platforms"  This page describes spadmin.  Do you see this
page when you search the application help?

I typed in Printer Administration in the help option of OOo 64-bit
Debain 3.2.1.  I got nothing.
For whatever reasons you got answers and I did not, it is not the issue
at this time.
In the help option, there are four tabs: Contents, Index, Find, Bookmarks. You must click the Find tab before entering Print Administration in the Search term. Click the Find button and then click the Display button at the bottom. The page mentioned will appear. It does in mine, and I use the same OOo version you do (Deb 64 bit)

Another posting tells me that there are many executable installed with
OOo, and some
are not included as menu items.  Then there is the wonder why P.A. is
placed in the
menu with one version and not the other.  Why Go-OO does not think it is
needed and
Oracle's OOo does.

I do wonder why OOo needs a "Setting up Printer, Fax and Fonts Under
UNIX Based Platforms".
Is this not a function of "System / Administration / Printing"?

The real thing is that the OOo web site 64-bit Debian 3.2.1 version has
it while the Go-oo version in Ubuntu's system does not.  Why is it there
for one and not there for the other?
Go-OO and OO.o are not identical.  There are many differences.


C.
As I wondered a few months back, is there a listing of the differenced
between the various branches of OOo.  When I asked about why I should
use Go-OO instead of OOo, from Go-OO's people, I got the answer that it
is better than OOo but no concrete info why.

Do any of you know of a web page that gives a side by side account on
what this other OOo based packages have that OOo does not?  It would
be something to see.

Also, there was an article a few days ago, will have to find it again, that
Lotus 123 is claiming that they are "out shining" OOo and will be the
version
to beat.  They want to be the one people turn to when they dump MSO.
They are also claiming to be better than OOo, but I do not remember reading
any differences there either.
