inetprohmm... 19:17
inetprowhy would you want to write in booklet form then?19:18
Kilosbook form19:18
Kiloslike the pdf things one downloads kinda19:18
inetproso what is wrong with LibreOffice?19:19
Kilosi dunno havent tried19:20
Kilosgoogled and found i gotta use scribus or texlive or something19:20
Kiloslatex19:20
Kilosbut one was a large download so i got scribus19:20
* inetpro just wondering why he wants to spend time and effort installing and learning something else when the distro has LibreOffice pre-installed19:21
Kilosno links said use libre office19:22
inetproai!19:22
Kilosi think i asked here19:22
inetprohave you never seen or used LibreOffice?19:22
Kilosforget now19:22
Kilosno man you know ive never needed office for anything19:23
inetproyikes19:23
inetprodon't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's the best for your specific job19:23
inetprobut it can get the job done19:23
inetprountil you realise that you need something better19:24
inetprofor specific reasons19:24
Kilosya but there how many office things and which one to use?19:24
inetproLibreOffice is very good these days and comes pre-installed on most Linux distros19:25
Kilosthere are 4 or 5 libreoffice things which one can be used to write a book19:25
inetprouh?19:26
Kilosi know its here i had to remove them from launcher to make place for stuff that works19:26
Kiloslike pidgin xchat forcequit  and modem-manager-gui19:27
inetproWriter is probably what you are looking for19:27
inetproImpress is for presentations19:27
Kilosi dunno what presentations are19:27
inetproslideshows19:28
Kilosoh19:28
inetproDraw is for all kinds of graphical drawing19:28
Kilosya that makes sense19:29
inetproCalc is for the bean counters19:29
Kilosill look at write19:29
Kilosbean counters?19:29
Kilosscribus is a serious tool for peeps that understand all that stuff19:30
inetproBean counter = A disparaging term for an accountant, or anyone excessively concerned with statistical records or accounts. 19:31
Kiloshahaha19:31
Kiloslike prokerower for lawyer19:31
inetproa quick overview of Writer's features: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice_Writer#Features19:35
Kilosty19:36
inetpronote: that page is a bit outdated 19:36
Kilosive google tons of data out these last 2 weeks19:36
Kilosthe scribus ones are also out of date19:37
inetprothe real info is here: http://www.libreoffice.org/features/writer/19:37
Kilostalk about functions that havebeen dropped19:37
inetprodropped?19:38
inetproit just keeps getting better man19:38
Kilosya like scribusX11 that was in there for colour stuff methinks19:38
Kiloslike this http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Help:Manual_Quickstart19:40
Kilosmy poor opera is cripple from all the links already19:42
Kilosaw writer looks good19:45
inetprowriter is good for 90% of what everyone needs for word processing19:46
inetproit is when you get serious that it may not be good enough for the job19:46
Kiloslooks like yeah and most likely much easier to master than scribus19:46
inetprothat is when you need to start learning the latex stuffs19:46
Kilosserious makes headaches19:46
Kiloslike scribus19:47
inetprono scribus sits somewhere in between19:47
inetproserious writers use TeX19:47
Kilosi still couldnt work out how to underline even though there is an underline icon there that dont underline anything19:48
Kilosgrrr19:48
Kilosill look at writer methinks19:48
Kilosty for the tip19:48
inetproit's a pleasure19:51
Kilosok then peeps. sleep tight.19:54
