I have a problem printing Microsoft Word documents created before I

the tables or labels prints, or shows on the page preview. I can
correct or modify the text inside the table, but it will still not
show on the page preview or print. I am a neophyte, so not very
technically-minded.
OpenOffice Writer allows you to control the printing of tables
globally. Go to Tools | Options... | OpenOffice.org Writer | Print |
Contents, and tick the Tables box. Does that help? As you will see,
there are other items that can be similarly controlled.
I'm not sure what you mean by labels here - perhaps what Writer calls
notes? If so, printing these can also be controlled under "Notes" at
the same place. You can arrange not to print them, to print only
them, or to collect them at the end of each page or of the entire
document. But I notice (in my version 3.1.1) that Page Preview does
not appear to show notes come what may: you need actually to print the
document to see what happens. This is a situation in which it is
handy to have a virtual PDF printer installed (free ones are
available), since you can do a test print to that and see how any
actual printout will appear - without wasting paper or toner. (Note
that Writer's Export as PDF... function does not help here.)
I trust this helps.
