Open Office has a great auto replacement feature, however it needs to be fixed up before it can become more useful. I first noticed it when I typed in something like 1/2 then it changed into ½ as soon as I thumbed the space bar.

The third column in the table is just a suggestion of what could be typed in to give the character listed in the first column, some of them are used already such as 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 Who knows what someone might use for the other characters if they what to fix part of Open Office to add more. Because I often write HTML pages in the word processor Open Office and use the format in column two, I copied what is in column two but replaced the ampersand with a comma, so to get the micro symbol type in ,micro after all how often do you use comma at the start of a word. The font suggestion in the last column is only a suggestion, as not all the fonts hold all the characters on the list, such as “Palatino Linotype”. But then soon we will run into problem number four.

By the way if you make lots of changes and you want to either back up the file just in case it gets lost on a version update or want to transfer the *.DAT file on to another computer like around the home or work (if you take it to work, Always make sure you ask your boss first), go to "tools" ⇒ "Options" then go to "OpenOffice" ⇒ "Paths" to find the folder name where it lives on your computer. However this plan did not work, and I got sick of the 4.1.1 version, I uninstalled it and went back to version 4.1.0. | |||||||||||||
