Hi Marcello Il 14/07/2011 11.20, Marcello Romani ha scritto: OOo/LibO has options to talk to e-mail programs. IMHO adding yet another (almos unrelated) program to an already huge office suite would be a bad move. I guess then people would gravitate back to MS because either: a) OOo is too heavy or b) they don't like the bundled e-mail client. We use both MSO and LibO... MSO in most cases is preferred because it start faster. We have also some programs that generate doc documents with a collage process. In this case we should convert all procedures for the odt. The sysadmin mantra say: is working? don't touch it ! ... I introduced a lot of open source software in the company with good results :) but in some fields there is much resistance to change (understandable) Besides, I can't see why the lack of full e-mail functionality in OOo is keeping one tied with Microsoft products. Just install Thunderbird or Evolution and off you go. Perhaps the question is how can I have all the features that MS Outlook offers with free/libre programs ?. Just as an example, Mozilla Thunderbird + Lightning gives you e-mail, calendar, alarms, periodic reminders, todo-lists (activities). You can have multiple calendars, too, including remote ones.

There is nothing in column 2 - literally - I can't position the cursor in column 2 at all. In experimenting with the document, it appears as though the second column is not populated at all. When I go down from the bottom of column 1, it goes directly to the next page. If I delete a line or two above the table on page one, the page break does not move. I went back and retraced your steps exactly - create a document with your parameters (landscape, 0.39 margins all around, 2 columns), put a 2x2 table in column 1, position it to the bottom with carriage returns, select that column and copy it to column 2. Save as MS Word 97-2000 .doc, re-open, select column 1, copy to column 2, save again, reopen. I get the same results as you. My file is online at http://tinyurl.com/28o924a as test2.doc.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: MS Office - LibreOffice (compatibility problem)
Hi Marc, I have found a strange behaviour. Steps: 1. In Word 2000 create a document with 1 line of text and 1 little bmp image. 2. save the document as nome.docx 3. open the document in Lib0 (image is missing, http://monteldvd.sf.net/_lib0.jpg ). 4. add from Lib0 the same image and save (overwriting the file) 5. open the file in Word2000 and... you find the text, the first image (missing in Lib0) and a shape???

Re: [libreoffice-users] MS Office - LibreOffice (compatibility problem)
You are right Michel, but is simpler for other people to send pdf files (using PdfCreator for example) than installing other software like LibreOffice. In many cases company policy prevent users to install software not approved from the IT office... If there are some difficult with many collegues... with suppliers or customers is a mission impossible ;-) Doc (and other proprietary file format) is the evil... because if your sender use Word 2007 and you have Word 2000... you need to upgrade your software or you are unable to read the document. It's obvious... but not for all the people. Require odf files from your senders is very very difficult... but it would be the best solution Il 03/11/2010 15.26, Michel Gagnon ha scritto: I see this recommendation send sources as .pdf files very often. Quite frankly, I really don't consider it a solution, except for legal and archival purposes. Why ? 1. It is another private format. Not as closed as it used to be, but still relevant on the good will of Adobe. I have yet to find a pdf file reader for Windows that does an equivalent job with font hinting and the like. 2. It screems look but don't touch. Except for minor modifications using clunky techniques, the document cannot be modified and is much harder to annotate than a .doc or .odf document. -- E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
