    Office 2019

    Only supported on Win10. Sorry, 8.1 users, only 4 years old, gotta go.

    Spoiler Office 2019
    Last year at Ignite, we announced Office 2019 – the next perpetual version of Office that includes apps (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, and Skype for Business) and servers (including Exchange, SharePoint, and Skype for Business). Today we’re pleased to share the following updates:

    • Office 2019 will ship in H2 of 2018. Previews of the new apps and servers will start shipping in the second quarter of 2018.
    • Office 2019 apps will be supported on:
      • Any supported Windows 10 SAC release
      • Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2018
      • The next LTSC release of Windows Server
    • The Office 2019 client apps will be released with Click-to-Run installation technology only. We will not provide MSI as a deployment methodology for Office 2019 clients. We will continue to provide MSI for Office Server products.

    Open office VS Word 2007

    I am making my resume and started with the one i already made in the past with Word 2007 but now using Open office 3.4.1.

    Is there a reason why Open Office is screwing everything and even changing all the formats ?

    I mean...it puts the table all around different size than before, change the caracters format without me asking to change it, change the alignment.

    It's suppose to be COMPATIBLE...I don't see how compatible it can be. It feels like opening a Word 2007 document in Wordpad.. if you see what I mean.

    Also the P carater in the top of Word that you press to see where are the lines there is none in open office...always the lines over the lines.

    Any of you can help me out doing something with it or anyonewas able to do something good with Open office? *Bang Head :banghead:

    Thx!
