[libreoffice-users] Bugs
Hi everybody: I've seen that certain bugs or issues appear in LibreOffice versions that before didn't exist. Why ? I understand that when the programers working in new version "touch" the code in other parts and get a new bug. I think is very dificult not occur this. How we can help with this ? We, the users can make one example to each topic of the menu of LibreOffice can do. Then when coming new version before out we can probe each example during one week and make a report to programers. With this reports, just following the menu, they can fix the bugs that apear before freeing the new version. The other way is to make a macro to probe each topic of the menu to do it automatically.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Bugs and Issue
I have a lady who use to send out complex .docx files, via email, to people in a transportation advisory group. I had a long talk with her, via emails, about the incompatibilities of MSO with their older versions. Now, most times, she sends the documents that are not to be edited as PDF files. The others she remembers about half of the time to send the files out as .doc instead of .docx. She has changed jobs, promotion [sort of], to the department that oversees the company that she worked for. That department is part of the County government administration. I have been trying, on and off, to get the County to use LO in some of their areas of agency support that would be perfect for LO as a MSO replacement even using MSO document formats. I am working on the idea of saving money on their budget. So the issue of the incompatibilities between various versions of MSO is part of the problem with buying new MSO packages, or renting them. If I could get them to stick with an earlier version of the .docx file format or the .doc format, then that would solve some of their problems and would make LO perfect for some of their system needs/usage. They oversee several community computer centers. So getting the County on board will make it easier to get LO into some of the region's computer centers.

Hi :) Earlier versions of the docX implementation don't always work on more recent versions of MS Office. Doc does but DocX doesn't always.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Bugs and Issue
Due to MSO's change of file formats, I always suggest the users of MSO use the pre-MSO2007 formats. That way everyone who needs to access those files will not have any issues. A .doc file will display correctly with MSO 2007 through 2013, but a MSO 2013 may not display correctly in MSO 2010 or 2007. With using the pre-MSO2007 formats [.doc, .xls, etc.] then a great number of the non-MS office packages will also display their documents correctly. Sure LO and AOO can read/write .docx, but with MSO's changing their format's internal workings, if their formats will not display correctly within their own line of office suites, then why use those formats. Then there are the need to have other businesses or agencies share documents. If one agency has bought the newest MSO office packages, and another still uses the older ones, then the possibility that all parties involved can use all the documents created is rather low. Sure you could ask them to use the ODF formats, but most businesses seem not to want to change to something new. So if you can get them to use the MSO formats that everyone can read/write without any issues, then that is the first step in the process of document compatibility with most office packages. Then you can start showing these businesses/agencies how well LO works and they will not have to pay MSO blood money the next time there is a need for more computers and more copies of an office package.

[libreoffice-users] Bugs in LibreOffice
Hello All, I have been using libre office since relase. While using libreoffice, I found several critical bugs like crash while saving file, creating pdf, data loss when opened from MS word docx format. Most stable release was LibO_3.3.2_Win_x86_helppack_en-US. After that, I tried LibO_3.6.0_Win_x86_helppack_en-US, LibO_3.3.4_Win_x86_helppack_en-US All these relases had so many bugs, I cannot continue using it. So, I had to switch to another word processor. LibreOffice is certainly good program. Basic bugs need to fixed. Only features are not important, stability is also important. --- धन्यवाद(Thanks) विकास(Vikas) -- 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
