#Ubuntu Fixes Opening #iWork Documents in #LibreOffice
https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/12/open-apple-pages-documents-ubuntu-fixed
Here's a #spreadsheet question: what #calculation-based "stuff" do you do with spreadsheets, *outside* the realm of grid-based tasks (eg a multiplication table) or texty lists (eg a todo list) or things producing graphs?
I'm interested in anything with a series of calculations that's /not/ a big grid!
Some of my ideas include calculating:
- salary/tax/take-home pay
- budgets
- expenses
... but I'm being very money-centric! What else can you suggest? #PleaseBoost! #LibreOffice #Excel #Sheets
Double-Clicking on Apple Docs in Ubuntu 23.10 Now iWorks
Ubuntu ships with LibreOffice because it’s a powerful open-source office suite compatible with document made in rival software, such as Microsoft Office and Apple’s iWork. Thing is, while LibreOffice can open files made in Apple’s Pages (a word processor, saves as .pages) and Numbers (a spreadsheet app, saves as .numbers) the shared-mime-info package in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS misattributes both formats as ZIP archives: So if a user double-clicks on either document in Ubuntu 22.04 the Archive Manager tool is launched, rather than LibreOffice. Thankfully, this bug was fixed upstream last year, and the fix included in the shared-mime-info 2.2 release, :sys_more_orange:

And here's an update from #LibreOffice's QA (Quality Assurance) community – what they achieved in November: https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2023/12/06/qa-dev-report-november-2023/ #foss #opensource
Gerade gelernt, dass man #LibreOffice auf dem #Mac auch so einstellen kann, dass es gut aussieht (Kantenglättung , Icons). Da ist das ja eine echte Alternative für die tägliche Arbeit!
Mein Erfolgserlebnis heute:
Ich pflege in #LibreOffice meine #Finanzplanung für meinen #Businessplan.
Meinen Businessplan schreibe ich in #AsciiDoc bzw. #AsciiDoctor.
Und jetzt kann ich über Konsolenbefehle einzelne Tabellen daraus in csv-Dateien exportieren, die ich in meine AsciiDoc-Dateien inkludiere.
Somit enthält der Businessplan bei der Transformation nach PDF immer die aktuellen Werte.
Ja, die kleinen Nerdfreuden. Aber ich mag's. ;-)

libreoffice suddenly stopped working in Ubuntu MATE 22.04.03 LTS #libreoffice #mate
@DigitalNaiv
Abhilfe schaffen z. B. Projekte wie #searxng #libretube proxysto.re #nextdns #grapheneos #libreoffice #torproject das fediverse uvm.
Ideen, die mir auch gefallen: Rotierende Sammelbestellungen in Nachbarschaft, Familie und Freundeskreis, gesharte Accounts, Accounts unter Pseudonym, Inkognito Bezahlmethoden und Versand an Abholstationen über Pseudoaccounts.
Zunehmend vermeide ich Onlineservices und kehre zu analogen offline "Werkzeugen" zurück.
Deuxième cadeau de Noël (demain c'est la Saint-Nicolas) : je viens de mettre en ligne mon guide sur #calc qui s'appelle tout bonnement : Calc, un guide.
https://numericoach.net/Calc-un-guide
C'est donc, comme son nom l'indique un #guide sur le #tableur de la suite #bureautique libre #LibreOffice
Il ne prétend pas à l’exhaustivité, il prétend à l'efficacité surtout. Et il est utilisable même pour les versions plus anciennes (mais pas trop) de Calc.
Hop ! Mis en ligne, enfin, mon tout dernier #calculateur de #tricot. Celui-ci calcule tout ce qu'il faut (ou presque) pour des habits de poupées ou de peluche anthropoïdes : pull, pantalon, jupe, robe et même, basiquement, bonnet ou chaussettes et poncho.
Il a été conçu avec #Calc de #LibreOffice mais peut fonctionner avec d'autres logiciels plus ou moins bien (mais pas avec... OpenOffice).

TIL spreadsheets can just sort alphabetically, I've been typing in words manually on a Writer document 😩️
Copied everything over from the doc to the sheet, and now words are so incredibly easy to add. It can even be turned into an Anki deck with a few clicks! I feel dumb for not doing this a whole lot earlier
With this new-found ease I added 100 words to Dúvsprak (my personal germanic #conlang ) today! so I guess I completed #lexember as well

L’application LibreOffice Viewer (de retour) sur le Google Play Store.
Dans le sillon de la mise à jour 7.6.3 de la suite bureautique LibreOffice, la Document Foundation annonce le retour d’une application mobile attendue, le fameux LibreOffice Viewer, sur le Google Play Store, en plus de la boutique F-Droid.
LibreOffice Viewer est une version allégée de LibreOffice pour les smartphones et tablettes Android qui permet de visualiser les documents

@Taunide Dann würd ich glatt mal schlauschwatzen und sagen: Nimm Dir einfach mal was billiges zur Hand und probier aus. Ich hatte mich eingangs verlesen, sorry... da du das Teil ja nur "bei Tisch" benutzen willst, musst Du Dir keine großen Gedanken machen. Für "Indoor" tendiere ich selber zu Druckbleistiften, aber das ist auch ein bisschen meiner Sturheit ("ich will...") geschuldet. Beim Druckbleistift ist es so schön, dass die Spitze eben immer so schön fein und spitz bleibt, wie sie angegeben ist, und zwar bis sie verbraucht ist. Letztendlich ist es aber doch so, dass jeder das eine oder das andere mag. Preiswert ist beides, wenn man nicht unbedingt Markenfetischist oder High-End-Glaiubenskrieger ist.
Übrigens hab ich das "echte" Schreiben auch auch erst wieder gelernt, also was wirklich lange oder mir auf irgendeine Weise wichtige Texte sind. Jahrzehnte Kalender und Adressbuch im Rechner/eigener Cloud, beruflich ähnlich lange Zeit ähnliches Verhalten... bis ich vor einiger Zeit einen alten Füller wiedergefunden hatte. 😀
Seitdem wandern Notizen, Ideen und anderes nicht mehr in den Rechner oder das Tablet und ich schreibe fast alles mit der Hand. Auch und gerade lange Texte (natürlich nicht jeden dämlichen Brief) schreibe ich fast nur noch analog. Eigentlicch schon viel länger - ne mechanische Schreibmaschine haben wr nämlich auch noch stehen. In letzter Zeit, gerade unterwegs, nehm ich aber dauernd den Füller. 😀
Natürlich heisst das nicht, dass Rechner, Netz & Co nicht auch Vorteile haben. Bildbearbeitung mit #Gimp, Bildarchiv mit #digiKam, Textkorrekturen mit #LibreOffice , Satz mit #Scribus und dazu noch ein wenig Krita, das ist für die Weitervarbeitung analoger Sachen schon prima.
Die Vorarbeit mache ich inzwischen aber am liebsten analog. Scanner ist gut eingefummelt, was aus der Schreibmaschine kommt wandert danach in den automatischen Einzug und wird von #Tesseract an Office durchgereicht. 😀
Aus "Oh, guck ma, da is der Füller ja wieder, mal sehen, ob der nich geht" ist nun irgendwie ne Leidenschaft geworden. Ich empfinde das tägliche Kitzeln als deutlich sztrewssfreier. 😀
Want to thank the #LibreOffice project for existing.
We take it for granted, but they're doing commendable work on ensuring that everyone can express themselves digitally (think benefits of FOSS) and collaborate with others (think standards like ODT, but also support of proprietary formats).
There is an interesting #LibreOffice poll about document selection in Start Center.
Look at example A and then b and feel free to vote (reddit only - sorry 😢) which UI you prefer for selection.
Leave comments if you want to share your thoughts.
Here's the poll:

Funny... for me you start now with arbitrary numbers... 😉
What about using something like "Edition 2023, Version 7.6"?
And btw. i assume, it is possible to develop add-ons for #LibreOffice... how do they check a matching version? As something like "works with 7.x" (checking on major version 7 in the source code) would be no longer possible, right?
And are you sure, that end users will recognize 24.2 as February 2024? 😉
@nixCraft And most of the world will accept it and pay up as if #LibreOffice didn’t exist.
#LibreOffice 24.2 will be our next major update, coming in February! 🎉 (New versioning scheme, to show the year and month when it's released.) A big new feature is styles for comments, added by Maxim Monastirsky: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/24.2#Writer #foss #OpenSource
Friends, I love, love, LOVE @LibreOffice. Interoperable w/ everything, tons of documentation, smaller files, and isn't a resource hog. If you're ever fed up with Google Docs or MicroSoft Office, you should really give Libre Office a shot.

In #Libreoffice "paste plain text" is Ctrl + Alt + Shift + V and I find that pretty sadistic.
Das ist ja schon der Hammer - mit "libreoffice --headless --convert-to pdf *.odt" kann man über das #terminal einfach mal eben einen kompletten Ordner mit #odt (und auch anderen) Dateien als #pdf exportieren... 😀❤️ @libreoffice #libreoffice #linux

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) support is improving in #LibreOffice, along with @inkscape interoperability! Learn more: https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2023/10/30/qa-weekly-focus-svg/ #foss #opensource
Looking for a free or cheap drawing tool (for macOS or web-based) where you can add simple basic shapes to a canvas and connectors between them, text labels, etc. And output in reasonable formats like PNG and SVG. The connectors should follow when you move shapes, of course. Connectors should automatically be routed around objects and avoid crossing each others and overly convoluted routes as much as possible. #LibreOffice Draw is a bit like that but lacks the clever connector routing, I think.
I just found my new favorite #LibreOffice feature: auto-convert to PDF. For all those times you receive .docx or .pptx when you SHOULD have received a plain old PDF document. What do people not understand about 'PDF is an export format'...

@ClaireFromClare Lastly, there is a standard called PDF/UA (PDF Universal Access) specifically for PDFs.
Microsoft Office, Libre Office, and Adobe Acrobat Pro all have built-in accessibility checkers that identify and explain errors that cause problems in PDFs.
For formal testing, try the free PAC (PDF Accessibility Checker) [4] which tests against PDF/UA - but it won't tell you how to fix errors.
