<html><body>Dear Sir,<br /> <br /> We have started using LibreOffice 4.1.1 suite and have encountered several problems. Please help.<br /> <br /> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>1. If we open Email attachment (.xls file) directly in Libre Calc (through file association) it will open as read only. While the same if opened in MS Excel it opens to a temp folder from where it can be 'Save As' to folder of choice and the file in temp is deleted. In Librecalc, I first have to 'Save As' to a folder, open it through Win Explorer.<BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>2. Filter: Filter By colour not supported.<BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>3. Print Quality is different in MS Excel Vs Libre Office.<BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>4. 'Page No' By default display in print page and there is no option to not display by default. For each sheet you have to set the footer manually.<BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>5. Problem when we open MS Excel file with cell borders to LibreCalc.</DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>6. In Writer the page formatting (where there are graphics, tables etc.) made in Word, gets lost along with the contents and entire Word document gets disturbed. Very poor quality of document is available.</DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>7. In Impress same problem as 6 happens. Titles gets heavily disturbed (misplaced), Simple graphics (which has no relevance to slide format) like small images gets lost and so does the text, also the text colour changes. A suggestion is that id the font is not supported, atleast display the windows default or the default font could be set in 'Options'). <BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif" class=gmail_default>We are grateful for providing such valuable Office Suite but it appears that LibreOffice is more suitable only for replacing MS Excel and other Suite products cannot be used as they loose valuable information in conversion.<BR clear=all>Please reply to the above email id.</DIV> <br /> Thanks and Regards<BR><BR><BR>----------------------------------------------------------------------------- <BR>Er.
