OO2 Impress vs OO3 Impress paragraph viewing problem

Submitted by JamesSoCal on November 28, 2008 - 12:17pm

I recently upgraded my desktop to OO3 and have been using Impress for class presentations for since ver. 1. Now when I create a file using OO3 I on my desktop & then try viewing that same file with OO2 using Portable Apps all paragraph wrapping is lost and the text spreads out in one line from off the left screen to off the right screen. Unfortunately I did now know of this until using the file for a class presentation. Fortunately I had the hard copy and was able to give the students the information verbally.

OpenOffice Portable v3 - 'Trimming Down' [Up to 100Mb smaller]

=======================================================================
This is a follow on from a post I did over at https://portableapps.com/node/16702 , where I said I'll do an experiment to try & trim down OOo3

Don't know if EVERYTHING still works OK but each program (Writer/Impress etc) does start up with no errors

But I thought I'll stick it in a different thread as it's a little long winded & I don't know anything about making a portable package for this

Based on MarkoMLM 'Option pack BETA 2 for OOoP 2.3.1 REV2' @ https://portableapps.com/node/10588

Openoffice 3 portable - Copying/Backup from USB

Submitted by kermit.frog on November 14, 2008 - 8:18am

OK might be a silly question, apology from a Newbie - but....

I've downloaded & Installed OOo 3 portable onto my USB flash drive (to try out)

Things run OK (a bit slow though) - however I like to have a 'backup copy' of the Flash drive in case anything goes wrong with it

When I try a simple windows 'copy/paste' from USB onto my local PC harddrive I get problems with the files:-

'com.sun.star.comp.deployment.?????.PackageRegistryBackend'

Which I'm guessing is due to the length of the path used (I stick all my runable usb programs in 'X:/Programs/Runable from USB/' directory)
