Re: off-list Re: [libreoffice-users] text width measurement
Hi :) It might be worth starting a new thread with just a brief new email. The list has been quiet for a couple of days so they might notice it this time. Normally i would say just bump your own thread by posting a new comment to the same thread but it's been ages since you posted so it's probably better to politely try to catch attention afresh. Good luck and regards from Tom :) From: alex bodnaru To: Tom Davies ; users@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Wed, 31 August, 2011 8:58:48 Subject: Re: off-list Re: [libreoffice-users] text width measurement hello tom, thanks for your interest. i've got no answer on the list yet. best regards, alex On Wed, Aug 3, 2011 at 17:19, Tom Davies wrote: > Hi :) > Has this issue been sorted out?
