[stylist] Using VoiceOver in Libre Office

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

April,

This sounds like more of a headache than anything else, grin. I've never
heard of Libre Office, but JAWS, in my opinion, is not this complicated, nor
does it have the issues you describe like only reading a few words at a
time, or skipping back to the top of a document when doing a search. And you
can save MS Word docs as RTF, PDF or other formats too.

Is Libre Office an Apple thing?

Hello,

     I am finally making progress learning VoiceOver.  I primarily do my
writing in Libre Office because I can save my files in all necessary formats
(.doc, .rtf, pdf, and more).  I am still having difficulty figuring out the
basics of reading, writing, and editing in Libre Office.  Does anyone else
use this program?  Why does it only read a word, or a few words, at a time
regardless of rotor setting?  Why does it always jump back to the top of the
document when using the find function, rather than going to the word typed
in the find box?

     I am still woking on publishing, and relying more and more on
VoiceOver, and less and less on my partial eye.
