Re: [libreoffice-users] Documents do strange things

[Wanda Moore <justme088@gmail.com>]

I use the right click menu or edit in the toolbar.  I've never used styles
or templates, as I don't really understand them, and just want to be able
to take notes and write things down for myself and my kids.  (I homeschool,
so I'm always writing something and printing them out.)

I have LO 3.4.4 and Mac OS X  10.6.8    Hope this helps.
