Re: [libreoffice-users] how to use japanese ore other language fonts

Hi :)

If you have a spare 15Gb on your hard-drive then you could always install a 
dual/multi-boot of Ubuntu.  The existing Swap would be used by both but i would 
do anything fancy like sharing /home partitions.  


The new boot-loader would pick-up your previous install but i would make sure to 
boot into your stable Ubuntu rather than this new testing one and then do this 
on the command-line

sudo update-grub

This would  make sure that your old, stable boot-loader got used booting you 
straight into your preffered options rather than using the new boot-loader which 
will get wiped when you have finished testing and delete the test partition.

Hopefully this makes sense!  Please feel free to say "wtf??" lol
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

all the settings of the default user. So "he" has also an italian 
version of libreoffice :)
