Dear Huguette You can download the Arab version of OpenOffice.org for your PowerPC Mac with OS X 10.4 from here: ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/2.3.0rc3_20070911 The Arab PPC version is halfway down the list: OOo_2.3.0rc3_20070911_MacOSXPPC_X11_install_ar.dmg<ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/2.3.0rc3_20070911/OOo_2.3.0rc3_20070911_MacOSXPPC_X11_install_ar.dmg> ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/2.3.0rc3_20070911/OOo_2.3.0rc3_20070911_MacOSXPPC_X11_install_ar.dmg You need to install the auxiliary program X11 from your Mac's install disks (do a spotlight search for X11User.pkg). Double-clicking on this package will install X11 in your Programs>Ausiliaries folder. OOo will find it there when you start up the program. It is best that you read some of the How-To information files for installing OOo and X11 http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ On a Mac, OpenOffice.org opens in Writer, the word processor, but the other components (spreadsheet Calc, presentation maker Impress, drawing program Draw,...) are available when you click next to New on OOo's Standard toolbar. Also see the Arab language pages: http://ar.openoffice.org/ Feel free to ask more questions here, Success! -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.3 m221 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo SRC 680 m241 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
