Extremely unlikely.
The problem is that I can't open the files on my laptop. When I reload 
the browser, it works again.


"Can't open" is a vague description. How are you trying to "open" files 
- double click, File | Open withing OpenOffice, dragging file(s) onto 
OpenOffice? What results when you try to open a file; is there an error 
message, nothing happens, something else?


What is your operating system?

Problems Open Office 4.1.1.3

Hello,
I have been using Open Office for years without any problems. Recently, 
however, there have been constant problems. Could this be due to my 
Mozilla Firefox browser?
The problem is that I can't open the files on my laptop. When I reload 
the browser, it works again.

Dear Open Office Support,

My grandfather who has used Open office via you and Sun Systems for years and 
worked as an engineer in the tech and electronics sector (ICL,D2D, Fujitsu and 
Celestica) all his life now at the grand age of 81 has issues with his eye 
sight due to macular degenerative disease. I was wondering if there is anyway 
Open Office more specifically excel can be enlarged or if there are any 
accessibility settings or software you know of that could help him continue to 
use his computer at all?

Any help or advice would be most appreciated. Looking forward to your response.

Yours sincerely

Greetings Gemma

There are a couple of ways to increase he zoom level of any of the parts 
of OpenOffice.


1.  Click View > Zoom and play with the options on the page that opens.

2.  Use the slider at the bottom right of the screen to set the zoom
level that is comfortable for him.

Regards
Keith McKenna

I agree - a large monitor would be best; this may need to be set to a lower 
resolution that its native resolution - for example, a 1920x1080 resolution 
monitor could be set to 1280x1024 to give a larger image of the items onscreen, 
but still have enough resolution to be useful.

HI Gemma,

You forgot to say which operating system he uses. Windows, Linux, Mac?

The answer depends on the operating system.

Windows 10 and Windows 11 provide plenty of accessibility features, eg
setting the minimum font size used on the PS and apps.

Or setting High Contrast mode.

For more info on Win10 and Win11 accessibility settings see this Microsoft
support note below

Easiest would be a large monitor. There are also screen reader programs. Is 
there any support group that might help?

I have found it very difficult to find the correct place to raise

Keep up your good work.
