[libreoffice-users] resizing superscript/subscript

2024-01-21 Thread Jean-Louis Oneto
Hi, I would like to change the default relative size of superscript font. The 
default value of 58% is too small, a value around 70% or 80% would be better 
for my use. I know how to change that for one occurrence, but I need to change 
the default value, modifiing all the text already there. I expected I would be 
able to edit the corresponding style but I don't find the relevant one. Thanks 
a lot in advance, Jean-Louis Onetoemail : jl.on...@free.fr

I use several of the fonts listed on this page:

I only used the Windows fonts, but they have also fonts for 
Linux/Unix/MacOSX.

Arial Unicode MS seems to me to have the most Unicode characters

There are just over 50,000 glyphs in Arial, whilst Unifont has just
under 60,000 glyphs.

IOW, if you absolutely positively have to have a pan-unicode font, then
Unifont is the way to go.

In the Synaptic Package Manager, it shows that I have the Unifont 
installed, but I do not see a font named as that in my .font folder.  
I wonder where the font was re-installed to, since I had it installed 
via the package manager already, but could not find the name "Unifont" 
listed.


When I went online to the Unifont "project", I downloaded the full 12 
MB  version TTF file.  When I looked at it in the font viewer, it was 
very "boxy" - actually each character is made up with boxes. Both the 
Web site and the info in the package manager stated the boxiness of 
the font.


I still wonder what is the best looking unicode font with somewhere 
near the number of characters/glyphs that Arial Unicode has.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Dear Libre Office team

2015-10-13 Thread Jean-Louis Oneto

Hi,
 If you are really worry about security, you should apply the rule in 
practice in high security agency (military...): only use software that 
you compîled yourself, from official source files, and after checking 
the sources for any backdoor or security issues. While usually you can 
get the source of proprietary sofware (with a non-disclosure agreement 
and often a lots of money), Open-source software let you do that for free.

That's one major reason that those agencies favor more and more open source.
Best regards,
Jean-Louis

8", 5-1/4", then 3-1/2".  The first Winchester drives were 10", IIRC.

DOS *was* originally designed and written by SCP, but I do not recall
it being a "test" system.  Digital Research was essentially ignoring
the new Intel processors, and the people that formed SCP finally got
tired of waiting for something that showed no signs of ever
happening, and created what became DOS.  That was half of a
double-screw up by Gary Kildall, who formed and led DRI.  The 2nd
screw-up (this story is apocryphal) was him leaving visitors from IBM
to meet with his wife, rather than him.  IBM decided DRI was not
serious, stopped in to see Gates, Gates bought "DOS," and the rest is
history.  So is DRI.

I still have a well-thumbed and somewhat yellowed CP/M 1.4 User's
Manual on my bookshelf :)  Says "Distributed by Lifeboat Associates"
on it.  Anybody remember them?

Jim

Trolls win when they stir-up anything, particularly if it could be read as

whether their claims are legit or not.  Also if they can convince people to
spend much time on their 'issues'.

In this thread, if it was a troll, we have handed them at least a
triple-win and we really didn't need to do any of that.  If it wasn't a

I think we need to focus more on getting good answers out there and back-up

The trick is to try to remember what you might have been thinking

There is no password cracking functionality or Extension for LO it's 
just the inept way MS fails to implement security.  Just double-click 
on an xls or open LO and drop the xls into it or open LO and choose

File - Open
to navigate to and open the xls.  File opens.

My company's finance department asked me to add something to one of 
their spreadsheets but 'forgot' to tell me the password.  One of them 
rushed down to give me the password but was somewhat mortified to 
find i had already made the change without having the slightest idea 
that there even was a password.  There was a very cofusing 
conversation where neither of us had a clue what the other was 
talking about until i figured it out.


The company still uses Excel and still attempts to 'protect' those 
spreadsheets with passwords that don't work.  Occasionally people 
give me other files they want cracked which gives me a morale dilemma 
each time.  Usually i just give a really half-hearted non-effort and 
then fob them off.

xls does not encript your document. The only thing that gets encrypted

However, my question was how to open an LO file if the PW get

Thanks to all of you providing me with lots of hints on not to forget

The SW I am using to crack an xls-file runs already for more than 60 h 
in the background. It's a nothing to loose only to win job. 6 or 8 
digits alphanumeric no special characters is the PW used.


Thereafter I will make a test cracking an LO file.

The only thing which makes me wonder is that there are PW removing SW

they could remove the PW but open the xls file only when I purchase a

Does someone has experience with such a SW?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: register true origins

2012-08-08 Thread Jean-Louis Oneto
Back in 1973, I had was working in the US on a camera-ready book 
composition, and I was given the "Pocket Pal, a graphic artsproduction 
handbook", from International Paper Company (10th edition (1970), 3rd 
printing, rev. January 1973. (the original edition is 1934) as a 
reference book for english typesetting terminology (I am French and my 
Polish is very basic :-) , and even if I cannot claim six-quarter 
printer ancestry, I have some knowledge of printing technologies, from 
composing stick using mobile lead typefaces to latest digital ones.)

In the "graphic arts terms" glossary, there are the following entries:

 * register: Fitting of two or more printing images on the sae paper in
   exact alignment with each other.
 * register marks: Crosses or other devices applied to original copy
   prior to photography. Used for positioning negatives in register, or
   for register of two or more colors in process printing.

The term "registration" is also used in image processing in a close meaning:

I think that bit's fairly easy.  According to the dictionary, one 
sense of "register" as a noun is "a state of proper alignment" and as 
a verb "to adjust so as to be properly aligned" or "to be in proper 
alignment".  And "true" similarly can mean as an adjective 
"accurately placed", and as an adverb "precisely" or "exactly". So 
"register true" can mean "align exactly" or "precise alignment".  
(There's nothing about baselines - but we're talking about vertical 
alignment, so what else could you align?)


Brian Barker


While I don't doubt your research (I essentially said the same thing 
in an example - to wit:


   /I'd be somewhat satisfied if I saw in a book somewhere that was
   describing the finer points of typesetting or some such, and it
   simply stated something to the effect of "when they used to set type
   on the presses built in the early 1900's, they would first align the
   baselines of all the typeface thingys, and then say to somebody 'it
   registers true, you may print it'". /)

The problem is you're guessing, as was I.  If you said to me something 
like "I've been a typesetter for 45 years, and my daddy was a 
typesetter before me and before that my granddaddy before him and we 
always used to align baselines and we called it register true, I don't 
know why we just did"... well, that at least carry's some ring of 
authority.  If you'd of added "Back in them days register meant 
'align' and true meant 'precise', ok that closes the circle.  Finis.  
In lieu of that, a book from a confirmed authority stating something 
similar would be preferable.


It's not that I'm unwilling to accept your explanation, I just would 
of preferred hearing it from an authoritative source, such that it's 
undeniable.  At this point I'm willing to drop the matter, other than 
to say I still vote for a change in name from "register true" to 
"align baselines" simply because it's more clear - at least to me.


Thanks to everyone that participated in the discussion.  I'll take a 
look at the links previously provided perhaps they'll give me the 
answers I'm seeking, but regardless I declare this thread dead & buried.

Yes, some/many are dead, but you can see the look and "feel" of the 
fonts and then Google the font names to download them.


To be honest, Arial Unicode seems to have the most glyphs.  Having a 
dedicated Korean font would be great, but it can be hard do decide 
which one is best without some viewing software [FontForge on Ubuntu] 
that will show the characters.  LibreOffice has a Insert Special 
Characters option that allow you to go to the different subsets - like 
Hangul.  Actually Arial Unicode has 12+ different Hangul subsets.


Do you know what the font name your friend or business associate uses 
on his system?  It would be nice to know that.  Otherwise, you will 
need to find as many Korean fonts, or Unicode ones with Hangul/Korean 
glyphs in it.


"UnBatang" was the free font that was listed in a Wiki page for Korean 
Fonts.  Microsoft's version is "Batang".

See if this image has the glyphs "style" you want.

Re: [libreoffice-users] IPA Font in LibreOffice

2011-09-04 Thread Jean-Louis Oneto

Hello,
Do you know this site:
http://www.sil.org/computing/catalog/show_software_catalog.asp?by=cat&name=Font
they have a lot of fonts, mostly free, including IPA fonts.
HTH,

Hello,

I'm having an issue with the IPA font in LibreOffice. I'm using the
"TeX tipatt8" font I was doing all my text transcription to the
corresponding phonetics symbols without any problem.

But now, I'm trying to mark the allophones into my transcription. I
found this Manual[1] that explains how to use this font with LaTeX,
but I couldn't do it with LibreOffice.

I tried with LaTeX and I could without any problem. Check the image below:

* http://www.diigo.com/item/image/1msf9/r7xp?size=o

Can you help me?

I'm trying to add that symbol to my transcriptions. Just in case, this
is the LaTeX code that I'm using to generate that image:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,english]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tipa}

\begin{document}

\textipa{D\u{eI}}

Re: [libreoffice-users] Document rendering flaw in LibreOffice

2011-08-27 Thread Jean-Louis Oneto

Hi :-) !
With all the problems I had with MS software, (one of the las was with 
Word XP which forced me to migrate to OO then LO), I can easily believe 
that they unable to implement their own standards, but that doesn't 
imply that there is not a marketing strategy behind! :-(

Hi :)
I think it depends on whether you mean the  implementation as actually used in
MS Office 2007&  2010 or the theoretical standard as agreed by various
organisations.  Why MS do not seem to have followed the standard they drew-up
could possibly be a marketing ploy, or at least perceived as such.  Either that
or they are inept at implementing their own standard.  Either way it does not
inspire confidence in using their new formats especially when they don't work
and their old formats do.

I'm surprised with that: IFAIK, the docx format was just the opposite:

I have one document, with some very simple graphic components in it, which
is refusing to load in LibreOffice Writer.

It has a few simple boxes in the layout, and it just suppresses them.
The problem goes away when I save them as a .doc in lieu of .docx

Any suggestions?

Hello,
I didn't notice the link to example file at first glance, but the
alternative of using the Data Validation tool is really very powerful!
I would never found it by myself without your example! It is really an nice
solution and it surely deserve a better publicity in the doc.
Thanks a lot to all of you,
Jean-Louis

Maybe it deserves a better name in the menu? But unfortunately I have
no suggestions, at least not yet…

I feel that the validation tool is just well named: the problem is 
rather that it can make so many different things that it is diffucuilt 
if non impossible to find a "better" name!
My problem was rather the opposite: I always considered that the "Data" 
menu contained almost only tools for... "databases" (or at least data 
sources, including reformating of CSV data...
That was partly why I didn't understand why "Controls" were made for 
databases, and why I had to avoid "controls" in the first place. My 
first think was rather the opposite: use the controls for simple tasks 
on calc sheets, and use "Data menu" items for "databases". This was 
sustained by the fact that most of the "Data" tools just ask you to 
connect to a database!
May be it should be the control tools which should be renamed (or just 
suppressed as some people suggested) ?

Regards,
Jean-Louis

Don't use form controls with spreadsheets. They are made for database 
input in the first place.

menu:Data>Validation...
Accept: 
... does the trick accepting any formula expression, even calculated 
references to dynamic ranges.
When you turn off the error message, you get the same behaviour as a 
combo, which is just a text box with auto-complete suggestions.
Unlike form controls, this spreadsheet variant of a combo box can be 
copied across ranges.

Hope this helps,
Andreas


In fact I had found a very similar thread (with a very similar 
answer...) in the OO forum:

http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=38322&p=175957&hilit=combo+box#p175957
but the problem is that in either case I am unable to understand the 
solution.: I was able to define a Data:Validation..Accept:CellRange, but 
only if I'm not in Form creation mode, otherwise all the entries of the 
Data mennue are greyed out. And if define a CellRange with a name, then 
I'm unable to use it in the combo box (or a list box)


I don't understand either why there are controls in Scalc which are 
supposed to be left unused. And with all the hectic thread about Base 
and databases, I even feel that if I should avoid something, that would 
be... databases! Besides that, I just need to choose a set of parameters 
from list of less than ten entries, and I would feel like overkill to 
build a database for that!
