Hi i wonder if you can help me.
I wonder that too…
the alternative seems to have a charge £1.59 but it says it is free.
What alternative and to what?
OpenOffice.org is free if you download it at
http://www.openoffice.org/. No charge what so ever, as long as you
download it yourself.
Is the open office Writer the same as MS Word ?
No. If it was, it wouldn't be free.
This is the software I want to type up a document, can you help
me ?
Well… download it from http://www.openoffice.org/, install it, run it
and start typing…
Don't forget to use Styles from the beginning. It will save you a lot
of time later.
There is built in help which is sometimes helpful. If not, ask
specific questions here.
Are there any software clashes, Say i want to send a document
attached to my e.mail, will it Open in all systems?
Yes, as long as support for ODF is installed (like OpenOffice.org,
LibreOffice, AbiWord, ODF-plugins for MS Office and so on). If the
receiver doesn't have to edit your document, you can always send it as
a PDF.
Thanks, please answer my questions
Regards,
Paul Whitehill.
What's ODF? My OO/LO/Symnphony wants to save in .odt.
