Creating A New Document - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE DESKTOP 11 - APPLICATION GUIDE 17-03-2009 Application Manual

Display and Usability of Notes
When editing or reviewing a document, users can add notes to the text. In contrast
to earlier versions of OpenOffice.org where notes were only shown as small rect-
angles within the text, the notes are now displayed on the side of the document.
Notes from different users are displayed in different colors and also show editing
date and time.
The Novell edition of OpenOffice.org includes additional features available also in
Writer, like enhanced fonts, support of certain file formats or GroupWise integration.

2.2 Creating a New Document

There are two ways to create a new document:
To create a document from scratch, click File > New > Text Document.
To use a standard format and predefined elements for your own documents, try a wizard.
Wizards are small utilities that let you make some basic decisions and then produce a
ready-made document from a template. For example, to create a business letter, click
File > Wizards > Letter. Using the wizard's dialogs, easily create a basic document using
a standard format. A sample wizard dialog is shown in
