Hi, Le 14/03/2013 01:50, jathan a écrit : Thank very much to all for your help ;) An apology for some ambiguity in my explanation. That I want to do with LibreOffice is use it in read-only mode by default in place of edit function as odfviewer: http://opendocumentfellowship.com/odfviewer, pptview for powerpoint presentations or Evince or Adobe Reader for PDF documents. That is to say that no document can be opened for editing without assigning permissions previously in LibreOffice, only use it as a ODF documents viewer. Thanks. I'd go the pdf route: create a pdf from the presentation and distribute that. Any pdf viewer I know of has a presentation (full screen) mode that will mimic the Impress behaviour (eg. Ctrl+L in Adobe Reader). -- Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Bordeaux -- 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
RE: [libreoffice-users] Put LibreOffice as unedited document viewer only
Open the document that you want to make read-only. Click the File | Save As ... menu. On the Save As change the name if you want to keep the editable version separate. If not, leave the name and location the same. On the Save As dialog, check the "Save with Password." (Don't worry, that will be modified in the next step.) Click Save on the Save As dialog. When the "Set Password" dialog opens, *do* *not* enter a password. Instead, click the "More Options" Under the "File sharing password" part of the expanded dialog: 1. Check "Open file read-only" 2. Enter a password to allow editing. 3. Confirm the password. Now click "OK" on the Set Password dialog. This will prevent direct editing of the file. This is not fool-proof. It is possible to overcome the read-only condition without knowing the password: 1. Material can be selected and copied to the clip-board. 2. The document can be Saved As to another file, and that copy will not be read-only. (I just confirmed all of this with LibreOffice 3.6.4.3 on Windows XP SP3.) - Dennis -Original Message- From: jathan [mailto:jathanblack...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2013 17:51 To: users@global.libreoffice.org Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Put LibreOffice as unedited document viewer only [ ... ] An apology for some ambiguity in my explanation.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Put LibreOffice as unedited document viewer only
Hi :) Ah, for Gnu&Linux i am not sure. Can you try to reinstall? There is probably somewhere in the settings that allows you to set this. Personally i find it's the default. What happens when you try just double-clicking on an MS document? Whenever i have installed LibreOffice in Gnu&Linux i think it assumes i want it to open MS documents too. Maybe if i had Caligra/KOffice, OpenOffice, Gnome Office or any of the other choices then i might have been given an option but i just don't know. I only ever have those things on briefly while trying something out or on machines i don't use very often because of their low spec. AbiWord & Gnumeric are amazing at fitting onto tiny drives.
