Re: Another FreeOffice question


Please download latest FreeOffice version 2024 and get your free product key from our website.


I have a valid reason for staying with the 2018 version.

I am trying to compile a spreadsheet that lists the activation keys for all software on all my computers. FreeOffice doesn't report the ky to ...

Request for next major version

Both TextMaker and Microsoft Word offer an option to display a side panel with the outline of the document displayed, based on paragraphs marked by heading style. Word and TextMaker both call this the "document map."

In Word, the content of an entire section can be moved to a different place in the ...

Another FreeOffice question

I started up an old computer today, to update Windows and to change some of the fonts I had installed. On this computer I have installed FreeOffice 2018. I no longer have any record of the activation key. Is it possible to look up the activation key in the program?

I have uninstalled Baskerville Serial from the affected computer, and I installed as a substitute the four important files from Baskerville Sys (also from the Megafont NEW collection). This gives me regular, bold, italic, and bold italic. For flexiblity, I also installed Baskerville ...

Re: Font problem

I have installed SoftMaker Office 2026 on another Dell desktop computer. The second machine is also running Windows 10 but it is approximately a year newer than the one with the font problem

Baskerville Serial is available in TextMaker on the second (newer) computer.

Re: Font problem


This is rather curious. I can't reproduce the problem (in Linux). Because of what you describe it can not be a font-cache thing. So here are a dew ideas:

1. Move/rename the SoftMaker folder in order to reset your config. Let's rule out a config problem.


Where is the SoftMaker folder I should ...

Should I try reinstalling ...

Font problem

I am formatting a book for printing through Amazon KDP. I was using Baskerville Nova Pro, from the Megafont NOW collection. I don't like the numeral characters in Baskerille Nova Pro, so I uninstalled that font and I installed Baskerville Serial -- also from the Megafont NOW collection. Windows ...

Re: Cancellation of hyphenation?

I have access to Microsoft Office 2016. The work-around I found in Word is to put the cursor at the place where Word wants to hyphenate, and insert a special symbol for "no width, non-break." It accomplishes the job, but the non-breaking character causes the word to be flagged as misspelled.

FreeOffice Version?

If I send people to download and try FreeOffice today, what do they get? Is the current version of FreeOffice 2024, or 2026?

If the current version of FreeOffice is 2024, when will FreeOffice 2026 become available?

Re: Cancellation of hyphenation?


Set the cursor to the position before the first letter of the word and press Ctrl+-. (If this doesn’t work, try Cmd+-).


Purrfect!!! You didn't specify that it has to be the "minus" from the alphabetical keyboard, not the one on the number pad, but it works. That's going to save me a LOT of work ...

Cancellation of hyphenation?

I write and edit books for publication through Amazon KDP and other print-on-demand services. I do not use Adobe InDesign to format books for print -- I do this using word processing software. I started by using Microsoft Word, which is what I had available at the time. I have now progressed through ...
