Is OpenOffice
really free for any user?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenOffice is
free for use by everybody. You may take this copy of OpenOffice and install it
on as many computers as you like, and use it for any purpose you like
(including commercial, government, public administration and educational use).
For further details see the license text delivered together with OpenOffice or
http://www.openoffice.org/license.html
Why is OpenOffice
free for any user?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can use this
copy of OpenOffice today free of charge because individual contributors and
corporate sponsors have designed, developed, tested, translated, documented,
supported, marketed, and helped in many other ways to make OpenOffice what it
is today - the world's leading open-source office software.
If you appreciate
their efforts, and would like to ensure Apache OpenOffice continues into the
future, please consider contributing to the project - see
http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html for details on contributing time
and http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html for details on
donations. Everyone has a contribution to make.

Notes on
Installation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenOffice
requires a recent version of JAVA for full functionality; JAVA can be
downloaded from http://java.com.
System Requirements
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Microsoft
Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
* Pentium III or
later processor
* 256 MB RAM (512
MB RAM recommended)
* Up to 1.5 GB
available hard disk space
* 1024x768
resolution (higher resolution recommended), at least 256 colors
Please be aware
that administrator rights are needed for the installation process.
Registration of
OpenOffice as default application for Microsoft Office formats can be forced or
suppressed by using the following command line switches with the installer:
* /msoreg=1 will
force registration of OpenOffice as default application for Microsoft Office
formats.
* /msoreg=0 will
suppress registration of OpenOffice as default application for Microsoft Office
formats.
If you perform an
administrative installation using setup /a, you need to make sure that the file
msvcr100.dll is installed on the system. This file is required for OpenOffice
to start after an administrative installation. You can get the file from
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555
Please be aware
that administrator rights are needed for the installation process.
Please make sure
you have enough free memory in the temporary directory on your system and that
read, write and run access rights have been granted. Close all other programs
before starting the installation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Problems During
Program Startup
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Difficulties
starting OpenOffice (e.g. applications hang) as well as problems with the
screen display are often caused by the graphics card driver. If these problems
occur, please update your graphics card driver or try using the graphics driver
delivered with your operating system. Difficulties displaying 3D objects can
often be solved by deactivating the option "Use OpenGL" under 'Tools
- Options - OpenOffice - View - 3D view'.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ALPS/Synaptics
notebook touchpads in Windows
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to a Windows
driver issue, you cannot scroll through OpenOffice documents when you slide
your finger across an ALPS/Synaptics touchpad.
To enable
touchpad scrolling, add the following lines to the "C:\Program
Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPEnh.ini" configuration file, and restart your
computer:
[OpenOffice]
FC =
"SALFRAME"
SF = 0x10000000
SF |= 0x00004000
The location of
the configuration file might vary on different versions of Windows.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shortcut Keys
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Only shortcut
keys (key combinations) not used by the operating system can be used in
OpenOffice. If a key combination in OpenOffice does not work as described in
the OpenOffice Help, check if that shortcut is already used by the operating
system. To rectify such conflicts, you can change the keys assigned by your
operating system. Alternatively, you can change almost any key assignment in
OpenOffice. For more information on this topic, refer to the OpenOffice Help or
the Help documention of your operating system.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Problems When
Sending Documents as E-mails From OpenOffice
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When sending a
document via 'File - Send - Document as E-mail' or 'Document as PDF Attachment'
problems might occur (program crashes or hangs). This is due to the Windows
system file "Mapi" (Messaging Application Programming Interface)
which causes problems in some file versions. Unfortunately, the problem cannot
be narrowed down to a certain version number. For more information visit
http://www.microsoft.com to search the Microsoft Knowledge Base for "mapi
dll".

Reporting Bugs
& Issues
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The OpenOffice
Web site hosts BugZilla, our mechanism for reporting, tracking and solving bugs
and issues. We encourage all users to feel entitled and welcome to report
issues that may arise on your particular platform. Energetic reporting of
issues is one of the most important contributions that the user community can
make to the ongoing development and improvement of the suite.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Getting Involved
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The OpenOffice
Community would very much benefit from your active participation in the
development of this important open source project.
As a user, you
are already a valuable part of the suite's development process and we would
like to encourage you to take an even more active role with a view to being a
long-term contributor to the community. Please join and check out the user page
at http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html
How to Start
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The best way to
start contributing is to subscribe to one or more of the mailing lists, lurk
for a while, and gradually use the mail archives to familiarize yourself with
many of the topics covered since the OpenOffice source code was released back
in October 2000. When you're comfortable, all you need to do is send an email
self-introduction and jump right in.

Joining the
Project
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can make
major contributions to this important open source project even if you have limited
software design or coding experience. Yes, you!
At
http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html you will find a first overview
where you can start with, ranging from Localization, QA, user support to some
real core coding projects. If you are not a developer, you can help with
Documentation or Marketing, for example. The OpenOffice marketing is applying
both guerrilla and traditional commercial techniques to marketing open source
software, and we are doing it across language and cultural barriers, so you can
help just by spreading the word and telling a friend about this office suite.
You can help by
joining the marketing mailing list marketing@openoffice.apache.org where you
can provide point communication contact with press, media, government agencies,
consultants, schools, Linux Users Groups and developers in your country and
local community.
We hope you enjoy
working with the new OpenOffice 4.1.2 and will join us online.

OpenOffice Community
