Re: Basic Macro – write a file
Johnny, Looks like your file was created on a *nix machine, which uses only a linefeed (0x0a) as a line terminator. What you want is a DOS/Windows line terminator of carriage return-linefeed (0x0d 0x0a). I use dos2unix to convert such files: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dos2unix/ dos2unix is actually two programs, or filters. One changes CR-LF to LF (dos2unix) and the other changes LF to CR-LF (unix2dos). Although I use Linux, this package uses stdin and stdout (redirection is implied), so it should compile and run with any machine that has a C compiler. Hope this helps.

"Out of the box" OpenOffice4 looks very much as previous versions; if there are changes to the default screens these may be caused by whatever theme is set on your computer. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Open Office 4
I do not like the change in the new Open Office 4. To change the entire screen to a new colored venue is distracting and delays both the installation and the close of the program. It is pretty but not useful. Please change it back to its prior screen. JNGreene

File was edited to Times Roman 14 point, double spaced, justified. When the Mac owner opened the file, it was unusable. Anyone wishing to edit your material further would not need to specify double spacing (or font and size): they could apply that formatting easily themselves. The only reason would be if they wanted to print it as it was and use the hard copy for editing. In this case, you can export a copy of your document to PDF and send that: everyone should be happy. He sent me this: "On closer examination and trying to import the ISGA article into Pagemaker I found the following problems: Anyone laying out an article (for a periodical or journal?) will want to apply formatting themselves according to the publication's style and standards. What they need is just the text of your article. You may well want to use a word processor to prepare your work - in order to utilise a spelling checker and so on - but you might well then save a plain text copy to submit to the publisher. If you need to mark the occasional word or symbol as italic say, you can use text markup - like HTML but not necessarily using exactly those tags. You could send plain text and PDF, of course. I will attach the file here, if attachments are permitted. Nothing distributed. I trust this helps.

Re: File problem
You could try RTF or legacy DOC format. OpenOffice is virtually unusable with the newer OpenXML formats due to political reasons. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
