I share the view of William Morder aka Bill. Couple of years ago (might be 5 or 10) I tried LibreOffice. It was not stable and it was messing up with my documents - unpredictable when it will fail and/or I won't be able to restore or continue where I left. The main reason to try LibreOffice was that it would promise to be able to edit MS word documents - well not really. So since I prefer stability over functionality, I switched over to OpenOffice and never had an issue with it. It might be that I try LibreOffice once again though, but I have limited time and I found out that you can't really work on MS document with those open source tools, so the companies I work for offer office365 where the stupid thing is integrated or provide a computer or virtual machine where I can work if needed. In summary Libre was a disappointment and was flagged as unreliable. regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
