[libreoffice-users] Hello there

[Becca Leach]

I am attempting to install the latest LibreOffice on my new computer, but an 
error message keeps popping up telling me to verify that it is a valid Windows 
Installer Package. Any advice?

Re: [libreoffice-users] More mail merge help needed

[Steve Edmonds]

Hi.
I generate certificates of test data, up to 700 at a time, by merging a 
hand created form (document, template) with data in a spread sheet. I 
don't use the wizard. Once the form is done I swap out spread sheets 
(change data source) with each new set of data.
For SF they state they need a .doc template and I don't know if the LO 
form for a merge translates to a .doc. Someone else may know.
I pretty much follow the steps that have been described in this list, so 
possibly trying to merge with a spread sheet may be a first step before 
trying to create a template for SF.
Create your list of data first, then make the form. Put a heading row at 
the top of each column to help.

There is a LO connector for SF, but AFAIK that connector won't make 
a merge document work within the broader Force.com platform. But 
this may be worth looking into further.  I'm still stuck on creating 
the document with next record and next page fields to make it

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Mail merge manual field entry

[Carl Paulsen]

Thank you Alex.  I'll give your ideas some thought.  The key issue for 
me is that I can manually enter "placeholders" for fields as text that 
Salesforce can interpret for the merge on their platform (well, I think 
I can but haven't been able to test it yet).  What I can't do is enter 
any LO commands that trigger a next record or next page that Salesforce 
can interpret.


All that said, I still don't really understand how LO handles mail 
merges and it seems to be tailored to those who want to generate merges 
with a Calc spreadsheet (even that should be simpler IMHO) or a Base dB 
or a connected dB for someone who knows a little more.

Hi Carl,

1) Create a Writer document template with the size of the label you 
require or use one of the pre-supplied label formats provided with LO.


2) In order to be able to include Database Field Names, you will need to

(a) be able to either connect directly from LO to the database server 
(using the GUI and a registered datasource or a macro to setup the 
database context)


OR

(b) insert "placeholders" or "user-defined" fields which will then 
have to be mapped to the data you can retrieve from your web 
interfaced database.


3) Alternatively, use some third party software to manipulate the 
corresponding ODF document directly (python, java tools, php, perl, 
etc). IMO, this may probably be easier in the long run if you don't 
require your users to manipulate file creation, ie., if everything is 
setup by an admin and doesn't require further user intervention other 
than launching a script.

There are some tutorials on using Base which might (or might not) help

also a handbook

A related question, which may help me figure out what I need, is how
does one manually work through a mail merge?  I only see the wizard, but
what if I've already created a document and just want to change a few
fields?  I don't want to have to enter a wizard and work through the
entire thing just to edit that document.  That function might also allow
me to hand-enter field names for this merge document.

Hi all,

I need to create a mail merge that will, I hope, be used with
Salesforce for mail merge communications.  I need to create a document
with manually entered merge fields where the source database has not
(and probably can not - at least with my current skills) be registered
with LibreOffice. Salesforce is a web-based database service that has
strict limits on connections outside of web browsers.

In short, what I'd like to do is create mailing labels, type in the
merge fields as they need to be typed (to work with Salesforce), then
save and upload the document.  I can't find any way to do this.  Is
there a way?  Also, Salesforce provides some templates for the merges
and I can see what I need to do, but the fields they provide in their
templates are not relevant to what I need, and I can't replace their
merge fields with the ones I do need.

Thanks.

Re: [libreoffice-users] converting .odt to .doc

[Kracked_P_P---webmaster]

LO version 3.6.7 - last of its line - and the 4.0.5 or 4.1.0 versions 
will give you better results for reading/writing the newer MSO formats 
like .docx.


Every line upgrade tends to be better at using the MSO formats, over the 
previous lines.  You are still using the 3.5.x line.  The 3.6.x line 
released its last version several weeks ago.  The 4.0.x line just 
released the 4.0.5 version today.  A few weeks ago the 4.1.0 version 
came out as well.


So you might have more success with the 3.6.7 or 4.0.5 versions.

I use Ubuntu 12.04 with the MATE desktop environment, instead of Unity.  
I am now running 4.0.5 [64-bit].


I know that Ubuntu's repository is really behind the current version[s] 
that are out on the LibreOffice.org download pages.  So you might want 
to upgrade you version of LO to one of the newer ones.


http://www.libreoffice.org/download
you can choose which version to download from this link.  I would use 4.0.5.

Re: [libreoffice-users] print drivers?

[Kracked_P_P---webmaster]

I had the LO "Quick Launcher" option once on my Ubuntu desktop [10.04 
GNOME and now 12.05 MATE].


The problem I found was if you want to upgrade any extensions or 
add-ons, the quick launching options can stop it from working. Some 
require LO to stop running completely for the upgrade process.  With the 
small portion of LO the quick launching uses, the upgrading thinks LO is 
running completely.  This option will not allow a full exit and restart 
of LO if it is needed for the extension needs a restart of LO.


Since LO starts rather quickly on my system, the quick launch option 
does not reduce that "boot time" by much.  Now if I was running a lot of 
"windows" and had a major file copy/paste "action" going on my primary 
system drive [c: for windows and /sda for Ubuntu] then it takes a lot 
more time to launch LO and the quick launch option might help.


But, by default, I do not use that option.

Actually, I just had to do a clean install of LO 4.0.5 on my default 
desktop, due to a failure of the primary drive.  Just finished 
rebuilding the replacement drive an hour or so ago.  Had 3 drives, a 
1-TB and two 2-TB.  Now I use three 2-TB drives.  Used part of one as an 
internal backup of the "/home" or "User" folders, but lost about a week 
or so of files due to the timing of the failure in the backup schedule.


So, I was re-looking at all of the options in the Tools>Options dialogs 
a few hours ago to decide what would be the best for my. I did not check 
the quick launch option, but did some modification of the memory options.


As for the "print drivers" from the thread subject, well I use the 
"Linux ONLY" use Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General --- Print 
Dialogs > use LibreOffice dialogs check-box.  This check-box is not in 
the Windows install.  I do not know if the RPM installs have it either, 
since I use 64-bit Debian installs.


Also I do not run "parallel" installs of LO or LO and AOO.

I have never seen the "quickstarter" installed.  However, in the past, 
I have left LO running with many open files when I shut down for the 
day.  The next time I start up, LO and the left-open files were 
reloaded as it was when I shut down.  This may be a KDE thing.


That said, I am now having a problem with this "feature" and am going 
to open a new thread on it to see if anyone on this forum has an idea

You need to make sure the QuickStarter is switched off and that 
they are not opened at the same time as each other. Various other

QuickStarter? Isn't that M$ or am I wrong?

[libreoffice-users] Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] LibreOffice 4.0.5

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I thought a few people here might be interested in the announcement just made 
to the accessibility mailing list.  


I'm not sure if anyone else currently uses screen-readers and such but it's 
often occured to me as a good thing to try out.  Also if you are the IT person 
in a company or have friends or relatives that would find screen-readers and 
things helpful then the announcement might interest you too.  


The accessibility mailing list is a vey low traffic list (kinda the opposite of 
this one) so joining it might be very helpful to ensure you get notices such as 
this one (err, 'see' below)

Subject: [libreoffice-accessibility] LibreOffice 4.0.5
 

LibreOffice 4.0.5 was released today and I just wanted to make you all aware 
that there are at least two accessibility related fixes included in this 
release.

Windows:
As Stuart announced earlier the Java Accessibility Bridge is now fixed for Java 
7. This is the first release in the 4.0-series of LibreOffice that includes 
this patch. David did a great job with this patch.

Mac:
The first patches from Boris will be in this release. It is a patch to make 
VoiceOver follow the keyboard focus. This is a huge step for the accessibility 
support on Mac. There are a more improvements to come in later versions of 
LibreOffice, such as typing echo information about text attributes etc. I do 
not know exactly when these improvements will be available but they should be 
in LibreOffice 4.2-series which will be released in the beginning of next year 
(~february).

Tom,

I receive your comments via my email account and answer from it.

Yes, I am setting a cascade of sizes based on size of previous
heading, using the same font size setting: 92%.
The key I discovered, is to not confuse LO is to apply Heading 1 to a
paragraph, latter Heading 2 up to Heading N.

I think that in that way, LO avoids confusion and scalates the font.
An advantage is that it expands or stretch the size to accomodate
fractional sizes.

I saw that thread...long and intimidating! lol.

Personally, I keep it very simple:  I copy the document (cut & paste or 
type) into LO Writer.  I only use the following paragraph styles 
'Default' or 'Text Body' and Heading 1, 2, 3 for chapter headings.  
Occasionally, I'll use a quotation style as required. All edits are done 
in a fixed-width font for readability and editing (I prefer Courier Prime).


Footnotes are always end of chapter if I use sections and a master 
document, or end of document (which is easier to manage, IMO, since I 
don't have to mess with a master document.  Some long and complex books 
with lots of footnotes get the master document treatment, with each 
chapter having its own section.


When finished with the input and review, I change Default Paragraph, 
Text Body, and Heading fonts to 'Times New Roman'.  I don't use the 
writer to epub plugin...since I've had bad luck with it.  Instead, I use 
Calibre to convert from .odt to .epub.  The good thing about Calibre, is 
I can keep the .odt file IN the calibre library for edits later on (if I 
find an error, etc), and just convert it to epub again as required.  
Very simple.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer tab stops setting keeps reverting to .5"

Hi :)
Is this related to the new thread?  Did you find a good answer?

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Writer tab stops setting keeps reverting to .5"
 

I'm using LO 4.0.4.2 on Windows 7.

Before moving to 4.0, I had my Writer tab stops set to .25" (using Tools 
- Options - Writer - General - Tab Stops).  I set it once and it stayed 
that way.  But since moving to 4.0, it reverts to the default .5" 
settingevery time I start Writer - even on existing documents - and I 
have to redo my .25" setting.

Does anyone know if this is being fixed in 4.1, or how to cure the problem?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Default View Layout(SOLVED)

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)  
Did you ever solve this problem really?  

I've just been going through old emails and wondered if it was something to do 
with the zoom?  Of course most weird things that shouldn't happen and didn't 
happen previously can be solved by just renaming the User Profile but as you 
said you really shouldn't have to do anything like that just from opening 1 
document!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Numbered List Help

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Superb!  Welcome in :)

You might find something in the official documentation
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications

I
 suspect that the "Getting Started Guide" chapter 3 (on styles) might be
 the most helpful but hopefully someone else might have a better answer 
soon


Many of us were new quite recently so this is often "peer led" support.  It 
sometimes takes us a while to work out the exact problem and then answer it so 
plesae bear with us if we ask you questions to determine the exact problem.  On 
the other hand there are also people that have been here for over a decade.  

Oddly enough we recently had a thread about ePub and generally found it quite 
difficult so you might be able to help other people straight away!  I think we 
did manage to find out 1 way of doing it using eLaix or something.  

Anyway, welcome in!
Regards from 
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Numbered List Help
 

Hey all,
I'm fairly new to LO so please treat with kid gloves.  I'm a proficient 
MO Word user, but I'm really enjoying the capabilities of Writer.  I've 
been using it lately to create epub documents from books that I find 
online and I find LO's capabilities in this area to be far superior to Word.

Unrelated to epub creation, however, I'm doing some work for an 
international client who uses .odf documents exclusively.  What a great 
opportunity to use LO in a professional environment!  Right now I'm 
recreating a document from a poorly scanned pdf, which includes quite a 
lot of numbered lists within table cells.

Here's my problem at the moment, I'm having a hard time formatting the 
numbered lists (spacing, etc).  For the document creation, I'm using a 
fixed-width font (Courier Prime 12pt) to aid in readability before going 
to final form, using Times New Roman 12 pt.  I understand this will 
affect list spacing, but I'll deal with that when I get to it.

I just can't seem to come to grips with the spacing options given under 
the list dialogue.  When my numbered list gets to "10)" the spacing 
jumps to the next tab, but I can't seem to adjust the "tabs" on the 
ruler bar.  They don't act like real tabs, if you get my meaning.  Under 
the 'Positions and Spacing' tab on the numbered list options I see:

Number followed by...[Tab Stop] at __

Numbering alignment...[Left]
Aligned at...
Indent at...

Can someone explain what these actually do?  I can adjust the level one 
spacing by hit or miss, but when I try to adjust the level two spacing, 
I just can't seem to get everything to line up properly. For 
international documents (using A4 metric spacing), is there a standard 
for list spacing? I'd like everything to be lined up and justified on 
the left side, with appropriate spacing/indent for the level 2,3, etc items.

Hopefully, this was clear.  Kind of hard to describe my problem this 
early in the morning!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: A neat feature

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I think it's one of those things you have to play around with before finding 
settings that suit your own needs.  Other people can try to help but exact, 
precision is only likely to come from making decisions for yourself.  Sorry 
that's not very helpful!  

Are you trying to make Heading2 a percentage of Heading1 rather than a 
percentage (over 100% obviously) of the default or text-body styles?  I'm not 
sure which approach i would take either tbh.

Tom :)

Sorry, ignore my last post!  

I really meant to just suggest renaming the User Profile and see if that helped
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile

It's usually the quickest and easiest thing to check when weird things start 
happening in LibreOffice so it's a good first thing to try while waiting for 
answers from this mailing list.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: how to stop text resizing with window

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I tend to think that it's worth starting off with the one from the repos 
because it's easier because it's already there.  However, if there is the 
slightest problem then getting the "upstream" one from the official LO website 
makes sense.  Also good to get the upstream one when a new version is released 
although i tend to do that once per branch and even skip entire branches 
completely quite often.  


"If it works.  Use it.", an ancient Chinese proverb, according to Ensign Harry 
Kim

[libreoffice-users] Re: [tdf-announce] The Document Foundation announces LibreOffice 4.0.5

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Good to see the 4.0.5 out!  I'm downloading it to install on all machines 
already and also downloading the pre-release version of the 4.1.1 for my own 
machine to see if i can manage to repay the community a bit by maybe doing a 
bit of QA type testing.  It's good to get the latest most stable version onto 
my colleagues machines! :)  


I'm not sure i will really manage to do that but that's what i'm hoping to do.  
Also i have never actually tried that "install in parallel" page that i keep 
giving out to people so i really should try it myself!  


Torrenting is great if you are using Gnu&Linux but in Windows it means 
installing a bit-torrent as they don't seem to have a default one.  My torrents 
arrived much faster than a normal download would but my upload speed is very 
poor so i've not had anyone downloading chunks from em yet.  I'm going to keep 
the torrentinh open for a day just in case anyone locally also tries to get it. 
 

Good luck all and regards from 

Tom :)

[Solved] Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with definite integral

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
It's something you could write to the documentation mailing list about but i 
don't think they really go through bug-reports.  Normlly for most teams i would 
say bug-report is the best way to make it easier to track what is happening 
with issues like that but the docs team are better with emails.  It doesn't 
need to be fancy.  Please try to keep it short.  Just a couple of line or just 
forwards your last email to them.  


However i think the Math Guide is getting a fairly major revamp this cycle (or 
maybe next) so maybe it's already been done.  (In which case the docs list 
might find it even easier to deal an email! :) )

Regards from 
Tom :)

Should I file a documentation bug since this is not mentioned in the manual
that I downloaded and studied?

Thanks again,

Uwe

Yepp.

Did you try a newer version?

I don't know if this problem is caused by LibreOffice itself or by the
underlying window manager (or by a bad interaction between the two), but
it's always worth testing a newer LibreOffice version. I'd prefer a
Vanilla version from www.libreoffice.org to a distribution's version,
because the latter in most cases has been slightly modified.

The closest bug description I found is
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68168
which happens to be also occuring on Linux.

And the CSV files, do they happen to be huge?

Regards,
Nino
