Hey, Group:

A couple of days ago (I think) I saw something on this or the Caldera 
Refugee list about changing fonts in StarOffice 5.2

The response of one of the regulars on both lists advised the postee to 
go to Start=>Setting=>(whatever).  I don't remember the details of the 
posting, but they are not important to this question (except for the 
info about changing settings).

Yesterday I installed SuSE 7.2 Pro on a second machine along side 
Windows.  I wiped out Red Hat 7.1 and SuSE 7.2 Personal in the process 
(intentionally).

Then I ran the setup program for StarOffice 5.2 (I have the boxed set) 
and then attempted to print a document in StarOffice.  What I got was 
the document printed in 5 or 6 point type.  That's when I navigated to 
Start=Settings=>"look, Ma,  no settings."  A little dialog popped up, 
which said "empty."

My blood pressure moved up a dozen points or so, and I determined to 
check the other machine, which also has SuSE 7.2 Pro and StarOfice 5.2 
installed.  I clicked Start=>Settings=> - and was greeted with the same 
empty dialog.

I checked the SO 5.2 Setup Guide and the User Guide as well, and found 
no mention of how to set up the printer.

I went to www.sun.com/support and found no help there, either.  I 
looked in all the usual places in SuSE 7.2 for relevant SO 5.2 docs and 
came up empty.

Anyone know what the hell has happened?  Did I overlook something 
crucial  but not-so-obvious in the setup process for SO 5.2 on both 
machines? 

Any ideas?

TIA

Regards,

Glenn
