The trouble is, I am writing for publication, and submitting things for publishing has certain requirements I must meet if it weren't for that little glitch, I would just leave everything the way it is. I like abw better than OpenOffice anyway. Got to figure how to get the abw working. I will have to add on to either program to get me where I want to go. I thought it would have the tools I need already installed, but I've looked at it through other Linux distros and it doesn't. I have learned that it may be possible to put the fonts and formatting tools I need into the abw program. I might not need to download OpenOffice after all. I haven't plugged in my iPhone yet, but I will try that soon. I am happy that I can even see the pictures and the phone now. a usb3 should be quick enough to not have to disable autosaving though. Things should speed up once the cache for the thumbnails is in ram, but a usb2 stick (even when formatted as f2fs) is slower than a regular hard drive. (or you can grab the sfs and do the conversion yourself with this.) i never made a pet for 4.0 but will at your request. If it did install, I don't know where it went!īlackfish, you can grab a working OpenOffice pet or sfs here. When I opened it up and followed the install process, it looked like it didn't install. Perhaps it is slower when running from USB stick? Dunno.ĭownloading the OpenOffice didn't work at all. I am running Precise Puppy 5,7,1 from a USB stick. Is this normal? Is there any way to change any of this? It also takes a long time for another picture to appear once I click to show the next picture. When I click to open a picture, it takes a long time to open the picture. The pictures are showing as icons in the folder, without previews. The second of which had my phone's pictures in it!

Office makes no attempt whatsoever to ensure a document will open and look the same on any other computer to the one it's created on and if it did then it would be fair to say it is 100% compatible otherwise it just isn't. Then you've got the headache of templates, font substitutions, page breaks, tab stops, default paper sizes, printer margins. ![]() doc, it'll often mess it up before you send it doc then the formatting will probably be wrong for people on more recent versions and it you create a document on.
