Hi OOo users,
I installed OOo3-dev on a vista machine and there are a few issues that
seem to be related. When I insert a picture in writer the default
picture is always XPM X Pixmap (*.xpm) which I have no idea what is but
I would like to make the default picture format .jpg so I don't have to
change it every time as if I don't change it, there are no images listed
to choose from, junt an empty folder as I have no images of that type.
Then if I change the picture type to .jpg and insert the picture, I can
not save the document in any form besides .doc. If I try to save it as
any of the open document types, I get an error message that says:
X ERROR SAVING THE DOCUMENT
Error in writing sub-document styles.xml
So I save the document in windows xp format and it saves the file ok.
Then when I want to export the document to .pdf so I can email it to
somebody, I get an error that says the document is already saved and do
I want to overwrite it. I have the box checked that says auto-extension
and if I add the .pdf to the end of the file name I no longer get the
error message. This is the case regardless of the extension that I am
trying to save as. In other words the auto-extension box being ticked
is not working. If I save as any file type I still get the message
unless I type in the extension. If I type in the extension and save
then it does save properly in the correct format.
I still have not found out how to add OOo as a default program to open
files as it is never on the list to choose from when I say browse for
application. I have tried the instructions from 3 or 4 different posts
but Open Office is never able to be added. I can get over that though
until the real release but I wonder if I can download a newer version of
OOo3-dev and will it keep my settings and templates and just over write
the old program or is it just better to quit using OOo3-dev for real work?
