Hi, I am a collage student and always need to do my papers in MLA
format but my computer does not have it. I downloaded openoffice
because another student told me with this program you are able to do
papers to papers in MLA format with it and print it out? Can I and
how do I do it? Thankyou very much, Melissa.
As far as I know MLA is a set of style guidelines for writing. The MLA
says its styles are not published on the web but are only available in
paper form from the MLA organisation. It says "The style recommended
by the association for preparing scholarly manuscripts and student
research papers concerns itself with the mechanics of writing, such as
punctuation, quotation, and documentation of sources."
As such *any* word processor will be able to implement MLA but will
not "know" about MLA. You need to impose the necessary styles on your
documents by personal, self imposed discipline.
You can use OpenOffice completely free. It is free to download, free
to use and free to distribute to others. Try it.
