If it doesn't work:
1. uninstall SoftMaker Office (or Free Office)
2. download the latest version from our website
3. install it again

Thanks! Will give it a shot.

When I try to update to service pack 972 I get a pop up window that says: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

any idea how I can get this to update?
Thanks!

I recently got rid of a desktop computer and trying to install Softmaker on a Linux Laptop. I have several Licenses, but most recently purchased a mixed License. I currently have Softmaker on 2 Windows 10 computers, and 1 Linux computer. I'm trying to install on another Linux computer which would ma...

I don't see the Linux download for Softmaker on your home page. Am I missing something?
I need to reinstall it as I had to reinstall my Linux OS.
Never mind. I found it under PC and Mac.

Thanks! Much appreciated!

Bump. Seriously, no reply? This is something you guys should be able to answer.

We Linux folks are a paranoid bunch in general :) I posted about the Freemaker version on a Linux forum and there were some concerns about your product: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=270056&p=1473991#p1473991 Particular concerns involved what info Softmaker collects on us...

That explains it Thank you very much!

I previously purchased the Linux version. Why is it so hard to find a way to download it? I have a new computer to download it to but all I can find are trial versions and my licenses on the softmaker site and not downloads for purchased version. How do I find that?
Thanks.

Mine was automatic.

I love free software. And I love software like Softmaker that is a great value for the price. Linux is more than just a free OS. Ask those guys at Redhat.

Thanks guys! I suppose there must be some advantage to Softmaker having its own file format, but I'm wary of that idea and being stuck with a file that could potentially be impossible to open. One reason I really like the open file formats. Nevertheless, really loving Softmaker and especially Textma...

Am I correct in thinking that if I use the default .tmdx file format it can only be read and opened by Textmaker? For instance, if I uploaded and tried to open that file in Google docs it would be unreadable by Google Docs?

I've got both running on Windows 10 with no issue. I did make sure my file types under settings like doc and docx were associated with the 2018 version, so that is the one that opens those files. If I right-click on a file it only gives me the option of the newer 2018 version, but I imagine you coul...

1. Tools > Customize
2. Type "count", and you see all commands about counting.
3. Drag the one you want with the mouse to the status bar.

Thank you!
Now that I've tried the newer menu it is growing on me
