OpenOffice Portable

Since I started using OpenOffice Portable a few versions ago, I have noticed that the program does not remember the default language for new documents. I have installed the Canadian English dictionary using the wizard just fine, but after that I go to Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages. I set the default language for documents to "Canadian English", everything works fine for that session. Next time I start a new document, the default is set back to US English.

Howdy John,
I don't know if only the German final has this problem, but the fonts folder in
App/openoffice/share is missing

I just installed ver.2.4 on top of 2.0.4 portable and here's what I got on all apps:

I'm new to OpenOffice, but
obviously this is wrong.
WinXP Pro SP2 (naturally). Any ideas?

I've been away from Portable Apps for a while, but now that I'm back and excited to give 2.4 a go, I'm wondering if I must use Portabilizer to get the JRE functionality of features like Base. From what I've read here, it seems that Portabilizer is not fully supported, so if I can use the Java features of OO Portable without it, that might be preferable. Thanks!

A earlier version of OpenOfficePortable supported this PocketWord, PocketExcel and some other file-formats for mobile devices.

But in this new version v2.4 I miss it.

I tried to download/install 'XMergeInstall.jar' (for the installed version of OpenOffice) but it didn't work ...

May someone help me ?

Could it be that the installer doesn't calculate the free space properly?

I have 168 MB free on my 2gb drive and the old OOO folder is 227mb. The new 2.4 installer says it needs 240.4mb of free space (german version). But as its overwriting a lot of the old OOO files, it should work anyhow but the installer wont let me install because it says it needs 240 mb and I only have 168mb.

Shouldn't it work?
Or am I understanding something wrong?

Hi,

how can I install a dictionary in OpenOffice Portable?

I've dowloaded the dictionary files. Now I don't know how to use them or in wich folder I should place them.

Thanks

Has someone been able to install an extension on openoffice portable ? I always get an error "Could not create java implementation error". On the desktop version of openoffice everything works fine.

I have not downloaded it yet, and already look around at the forum,
but i wanna ask 1st, but is the apps require u to have installed java on the PC ?

or all i need is OpenOffice_Portable_2.3.1_Rev_2_en-us.paf.exe alone ?
which i would assume if this last point is correct then i will have the java independently in the openoffice portable folder ??
and no need to disturb my PC ?

thank you,

hi
i just started using portableapps today and i installed openoffice among about 5 or 6 other apps. i scanned my thumb drive after with avg and it came out clean. i then scanned with superantispyware and it flagged one item:

Trojan.Unclassified-Packed/Suspicious
E:\APPS\OPENOFFICE 2.3.1 R2\APP\OPENOFFICE\PROGRAM\XMERGESYNC.DLL

i was wondering if anyone could confirm if this is a false positive.
