I typed in Printer Administration in the help option of OOo 64-bit Debain 3.2.1. I got nothing. For whatever reasons you got answers and I did not, it is not the issue at this time. Another posting tells me that there are many executable installed with OOo, and some are not included as menu items. Then there is the wonder why P.A. is placed in the menu with one version and not the other. Why Go-OO does not think it is needed and Oracle's OOo does. I do wonder why OOo needs a "Setting up Printer, Fax and Fonts Under UNIX Based Platforms". Is this not a function of "System / Administration / Printing"? > >> The real thing is that the OOo web site 64-bit Debian 3.2.1 version has >> it while the Go-oo version in Ubuntu's system does not.

As I wondered a few months back, is there a listing of the differenced between the various branches of OOo. When I asked about why I should use Go-OO instead of OOo, from Go-OO's people, I got the answer that it is better than OOo but no concrete info why. Do any of you know of a web page that gives a side by side account on what this other OOo based packages have that OOo does not? It would be something to see. Also, there was an article a few days ago, will have to find it again, that Lotus 123 is claiming that they are "out shining" OOo and will be the version to beat. They want to be the one people turn to when they dump MSO. They are also claiming to be better than OOo, but I do not remember reading any differences there either. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
