Text overwriting and data not presenting
Hello, I've been using Apache Open Office 4.0.1 with my 2012 Mac Air and have had little problems in the past. I usually save my documents to my drive in MS (.doc and .xls) as they are often are shared with other MS and MAC users. I recently had a mac store migrate my files to a new 2017 Mac Air with 1TB upgrade as my older mac air storage was limited and freezing up on me. I have not had any issues opening older documents saved on my drive. #1 I found that a few recent saves in open office .doc form appear with all the text superimposed upon itself and I'm unable to make sense of the document. It does not happen with all documents received, just a few. This has also happened when I opened and tried to save a .docx email attachment #2 Spreadsheet data not presenting - Very Strange Cells in the spreadsheet appear to be hiding. Clicking on a cell will show the data, but does not appear otherwise. Also the situation is not static. When I scroll on the page, sometimes some of the data will appear and othertimes, data that was visible is no longer viewable unless one clicks on the cell. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. This is very stressful and more so during covid, where reliable software is crucial to get any work done. Rochelle

Do not let your computer sleep/hibernate with a document open. When you have formally closed down the computer, wait five or ten seconds before pulling the power lead or closing the laptop lid, to allow the internal buffers of the hard drive flush to disk. This will save your user details and the list of your recent documents. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

OCRing a document will usually try to recreate the exact format of the document, so you may need to edit that if you are intending to reformat the document. In addition, OCR only has an accuracy level of about 97-98%, depending on quality of the original, so you will need to proof-read to find such errors and edit to correct them. In particular, figures should be checked and rechecked if they are of importance to the document. Rory > > On Thu, 24 Sep 2020, Derek Garner wrote: > > > I am not very computer literate.
