Whenever you install software, you should have all of the updates for that system, Windows, or Linux. Would you let us know which version of Windows you are running? XP, Vista, Win7, or Win8 [32 or 64 bit] What version of LibreOffice are you installing? Also,have you installed Java on you system? You do not need to answer these questions, but it helps keep track of which versions and OS our users use and which versions that may have some issues that need to be looked into or some added documentation to help people use LibreOffice better. I run 4.0.5 on the systems I had a chance to update, but will be installing 4.1.0 [or 4.1.1] on one system for testing purpose. I run Ubuntu12.04 [Linux] and both versions of Win7 [64-bit for both Home Premium and Professional], thought I have installed LibreOffice on Win XP, Vista, and 32-bit Win7 systems. Of course, some people are running 3.6.7, which is the last of that line, and isa good version for businesses and individuals. 4.0.5 came out yesterday[?] and is the newest version - by release date - LibreOffice has. 4.1.1 should be out in a week or two. [ Keeping your system up-to-date, especially for a Windows system, is a habit people need to get into. Paramount is keeping your anti-virus and other security packages up-to-date so you will not get infected with some nasty program that could cause you system harm or wipe out you data. Also keeping you system backed up is a requirement for good system use, for those times when something gets through your security, or a disc drive fails. They have a limited life of a few years. My main desktop that I use daily was bought in early 2010 and the drive that came with it died over the weekend. I lost only the files that was not in my backup system, so I did not loosethe bulk of my files on that 1-TB drive. I backup weekly or bi-weekly depending on the workload. Since I now have three 2-TB drives internally, in my Ubuntu desktop, I now have to buy anew external 2-TB drive. I have two already for full external backupof my main system. I use one of the internal 2-TB drive [not the one with the operating system on it] for a partial backup of my most used folders - photos, work files, and other things I do on a daily or weekly basis. That way, I do not need to do a full backup every week, which takes a long time moving so much data through a USB2.x connector. I have over 4 TB of data to backup, currently, so ti take a lot of time out of my schedule to do that. ] -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-users] hello
Hi :) Loads of different areas you can help. It can be good to do a quick tour and try each team for a couple of weeks to see which you prefer. Documentation is a good one to start with although it might take them a while to give you access to the site where the works-in-progress are kept. One of their current missions is to complete translating the German Handbook for Base and they really need people to proof-read to see if any odd errors have crept in. It's unusual to be translating from another language but it happens that way sometimes. The wiki's Faq is being translated from the French. Documentation is a good one to start with because you quickly learn a lot about LibreOffice just from getting into the work. If you have skills in other human languages then you might enjoy helping the translation teams. A fairly popular team is marketing. Again whichever country you happen to live in might have a 'local' team and/or whichever human language you prefer to speak may have a different team. If you are in the USA then the team is fairly small and i think the UK doesn't have one due to general shyness. Brasil and Germany have teams that are so large they have formed independent companies. So, it's quite variable. So, you might have to limit yourself to just a few teams out of quite a large selection of possibilities. I think the Design Team only has 1 list and i don't know if they try to stick to English or something else. QA is often known as bug-testers or triagers in other projects. From your blog it looks like you might have enough command-line skills to be quite an advanced member of their team. Usually you learn through working in the lists and asking questions but you might already be ready to answer other people's questions there. When you say you don't know good programming that might mean you just need to try out a few Easy Hacks and get feedback from the devs in order to learn the best ways of doing things in LO. Each project probably has slightly different ideas about some things. I think LO mostly uses C++ and possibly Python but is moving away from Java. So, lots of different teams, often with different languages. Most don't have any programming or even command-line skills and the personality types best suited to Marketing might not be best for Documentation or programming and vice-versa. So the trick is finding a team that has a few people you like or that does work you enjoy and join in for a bit.

Do you have good skills in English or your native language if it is other than English. [for help converting the documents to that language]. LO has many Wiki pages that need content, like the FAQ page. There are always a need for people to help with editing of documents to find anyerrors in grammar or other things that slipped through the authors. I am an Ubuntu user, Ubuntu 12.04 with Mate as the desktop environment, plus Windows XP and Vista systems. I no longer have programming skills after 3 strokes, so that was out for me as well. But there are many ways I help the LibreOffice cause. I amcurrently working on ideas for a 6 letter size pages/panels for a quick reference guide for Writer and then the others. It may be a project that will work or not. I will be looking at what could be included and gathering the information for the included items. When this project gets going, we will need helpers. I have worked on creating English spell checking dictionaries. http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/american-british-canadian-spelling-hyphen-thesaurus-dictionaries Then there are those of us that create regional DVDs for distribution of LO and related files geared towards your regional area. I maintain the North American Community DVD Project's DVD.

[libreoffice-users] Hello!
I am new here so excuse me if this isssue has been already discussed. When manually reformatting a 3.5 Write text the .line scroll is exasperating slow.Maybe a wrong memory approach? I tried the Suse/Intel version and I realized it is fine. Second: What about a new Format - Paragraph option to auto-replace all alone line-feeds (0x0A) with CR-LF (0xOD0A); preventing the need to fix manually all wrong right justfied last lines of paragraphs. Thanks. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
