Re: [libreoffice-users] corrupt letter

2018-11-25 Thread Remy Gauthier
Hi,

It almost looks like if the "Monthly car payment" string was displayed
using the date format of the A1 cell. What are the language and formats
used in the A1 and B1 cells?

It is not a format problem because sometimes it works.
It seems to corrupt something in the OS after a while that shows up in 
libreoffice.

The most recent problem was '2' was garbled.

I've also seen it when '2' displays garbled.

Any ideas about how to track down what software has the problem?

Re: [libreoffice-users] corrupt letter

2018-11-25 Thread Michael H
I had a problem similar to this on windows 98, after I installed a legal
copy of word perfect and all 1100 fonts it came with.  Apparently windows
98 had a limit of about 500 fonts ... and above that it would get confused
after a while.

However,  more recently I used Ubuntu studio 12, which ships with about
1200 fonts,  and ported those to wasta 14 and 16 en mass. I had no issues.
I haven't ported this many to wasta 18 yet.

Re: [libreoffice-users] corrupt letter

2018-11-25 Thread Malcolm Jaros
Just a thought. Ubuntu 18.10 is a new distro and less thoroughly tested than 
the LTS version 18.04.
If you do not get this problem in 18.04 perhaps you should stay with that for a 
while.

Does this happen only in Calc or does it happen in Writer too?  Also, do
you have any special formatting in the cells?

Peace...
