Not knowing if it's possible to read that with OpenOffice, I would advise you to rewrite in LaTeX. It's a good way to learn the typesetting and you'll love how it looks. If you care for your text use LaTeX. Do you think all the scientists who put their preprints on arXiv.org can be wrong? Regards, ralf -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
