a question about docx files.

[nasrin khaksar]

hi every one.
open office since version 4.1.1 is very fast in openning docx files
akin doc file.
do you know how we can store our documents in docx files?
because for our articles, university and job, we are required to store
our documents in docx format.
any help is appreciated.
because i know the people who want to use open office, but they dont.
for the reason of lack support of export to docx.
thanks for your help and god bless you.

The usual cure for spellcheck problems is to delete or rename your OpenOffice 
user profile. If you are using Windows do this by:

Close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File Explorer. Copy and paste 
%appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer Address Bar and press Enter. Delete 
or Rename the "user" folder. Start OpenOffice.

This cures most spellcheck problems.

[Lynsey Lodge]

Hello,


I love open office and was using it just fine yesterday. Today I turned on my 
computer and my word document had every word underlined in red, saying that 
they were all incorrect. Even words like the, a, and I. I tried uninstalling 
and reinstalling, checking the language (it's correct), and I followed one of 
your online forums to fix the problem.


The forum stated that for sure fix was to reinstall my user profile. I have no 
idea how to do that. I need help because it's not working.


Thank-you,

Lynsey Lodge

Re: Open Office Writer UTTER , UTTER Rubbish (or not)

[Kay Schenk]

Apache OpenOffice does indeed have a perfectly functional
spell checker. And, of course, we are aware of the problems
for some users/systems  with the spell checker on upgrades.
We have recently had a patch submitted and tested to correct
this problem. See the following BZ entry:

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126762

Hopefully, when 4.2 is released, the problem will be solved.

 Can someone please pass this comment on to the

 It has the a really obvious problem with the
 program...
 
 IT HAS NO BLOODY  SPELL CHECK!
 
 Seriously I ask you this, what IDIOT created a doc
 writer without the most fundamental function
 
 Even when installing 4.1.2 it says its selected ,
 however NO, it just doesn't work..
 
 I will be pulling my donations and putting money

Dieses „Nichts“ ist unglaubwürdig, irgendetwas muss passieren (wenigstens eine 
Meldung muss erfolgen), wenn Du eine Datei doppelt anklickst.

> Was muss ich tun, damit Office Writer klappt?

Du kannst entweder OpenOffice starten und von dort aus eine vorhandene Datei 
öffnen, oder Du legst im Betriebssystem fest, dass gewisse Dateien stets von 
OpenOffice geöffnet werden sollen.

Re: ROTATE

[Steve Ahlers]

Sylvia,

What are trying to do?

Are you trying to have a document print in Landscape instead of Portrait? This 
is a function of Page Setup.

Are you trying to have text in a Calc cell rotated? This is a function of Cell 
Formatting.

Are you trying to rotate text in a Draw or Impress document? This is a function 
of the Formatting in a Text Box.

Please let us know what you are specifically trying to do so that we as fellow 
users can help you better.  Please respond to users address so all interested 
users can see and potentially help.

Hello Linda,
usually you don't need OpenOffice to scan and attach your scanned documents to 
an e-mail. If you have a scanner connected to your computer you should have a 
software of the scanner's manufacturer for scanning documents on your computer, 
too.
Using this software you can scan your documents.

You need the Migration Guide. Start at
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOoAuthors_User_Manual/Migration_Guide 
and browse using the panel at top right. In particular, you will want 
to read "General Differences in Use between OpenOffice.org and 
Microsoft Office" and "Differences in Use between Writer and Word".


I trust this helps.

Do you have a presentation of any kind that supports moving to Apache 
OpenOffice?  I am trying to get off of Word and since I do not know what you 
know about your product it would be a better presentation of material if it
