I would like to add a further thought regarding digital signature verification: The whole point of digital signatures and third-party verification is to allow viewers to ascertain that the digital signatures on a document are valid. Digital signatures are supposed to work such that the digital signa...

Is there any update on this? As a self-published author who is starting to publish books for other authors as well as my own books, the ability to view a book as a two-page spread is invaluable. Please add this capability. You offer it in TextMaker -- we should be able to view PDFs the same way. Tha...

AHA! When I got the "Printer is off line" popup I was clicking Cancel. I chose Ignore instead and then I got the popup that lets me choose a printer. The next time I tried to print a spreadsheet I got the normal "choose your printer" popup. Interesting. I would not have thought ...

Interesting. I just checked, and this is a problem. There's more: I have a printer connected to my computer and always on. TextMaker prints to that printer with no issues. PlanMaker won't print to it. It recognizes that there is a default printer, but it reports that [default printer name] is off-li...

URW Deepdene Roman -- agreed

Can you post a sample in that font?

Another follow-up to the recent notification that SoftMaker has taken over direct control of the future development of FlexiPDF (and, I hope, FreePDF as well). The attached image is a screen shot from the free FoxIt PDF Reader. I have highlighted where it automatically pops up a panel notifying the ...

I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse, but I have read the e-mail from SoftMaker about the shift in development of FlexiPDF, and I hope this will result in adding features that will make FlexiPDF (and FreePDF) competitive with the competition. I mentioned above about adding a measuring tool. Not o...

Is there any news on when to expect the 2024 version of FreeOffice?

Thank you in advance.

"Check spelling as you type" is checked. How do I verify that the Hunspell dictionary for American English is installed? When I click the box for Hunspell dictionaries, I don't see anything listed. I guess that's what we call a "clue"? How do I install a dictionary? I am in the U...

Further update: I found a USB thumbdrive with an older version of FreeOffice on it. I don't know the year, but it's old enough that it doesn't offer the ribbon interface option. Maybe 2012 or 2015? On that one, spell checking works. I have checked all of them and they all have the language correctly...

Update:

I have FreeOffice 2021 installed on a Windows 10 laptop computer. I just tried a sample document on that computer and the same thing happened. I intentionally misspelled several words, and the spell check didn't pick up any errors.

I have a friend in Europe who writes for a special interest, on-line magazine. He currently uses Microsoft Word 2021. Microsoft is pushing everyone toward the subscription model, so we expect that Office 2021 will be the last non-subscription version available. The end-of-support for both 2016 and 2...

Use chapter breaks. Use "Insert field" to place the page numbers. Then us "Format Chapter" > "Page Numbers" to change the page numbering.

Cambridge Pro is very close. Thank you.
