I've found OpenOffice.org infinitely annoying in typing up my notes for school, all the "features" such as automatic starting of bulleted and numbered lists to state the biggest offenders are really annoying, that along with the startup time OpenOffice has just so I can type up a few simple notes has left me very inclined to switch to a simple rich text editor. I tried Abiword but after the first time using it I found that the printouts were tiny, the ratio of width and hight are correct for an A4 paper size but it prints out absolutely tiny and I use "Letter" sized paper. I have not been able to change the paper size as of yet since I'm still just learning the user interface but I would appreciate any help with this. I'm using Abiword in Windows right now because my printouts look much better there, in Linux the colours and shades come out faded a little because the driver is probably a little light on the ink. -- http://www.geocities.com/ntws01/ http://ntws01.blogspot.com/
