U nastavku naše male serije LibreOffice , raspravljat ćemo o pet najboljih savjeta i trikova za Writer . Kao što možda znate, a možda i ne znate, LibreOffice Writer je besplatna i open-source alternativa Microsoft Wordu , a prvenstveno ga koriste oni koji koriste operacijske sustave Linux .

Alat je također dostupan u sustavu Windows 10^{(Windows 10)} , pa ako si ne možete priuštiti Microsoft Office , predlažemo da pogledate što LibreOffice nudi umjesto da se okrenete piratstvu. Mi ovdje u The Windows Clubu^{(Windows Club)} ne zastupamo piratstvo u bilo kojem obliku, stoga imajte to na umu.

Prednosti LibreOffice Writera

Sada, prije nego što započnete svoje putovanje s LibreOffice Writer , samo znajte da se dizajn ne može usporediti s Microsoft Officeom^{(Microsoft Office)} . Izgleda drevno, ali to također znači da neće zauzimati puno resursa kada se koristi. To ga čini savršenim za starija računala koja više ne mogu pratiti ono što Microsoft nudi.

Promijenite zadani format spremanja iz ODT u Word
Najvažniji tipkovnički prečaci
Koristite značajku Stilovi
Učinite LibreOffice bržim nego ikad
Iskoristite^(Take) prednosti značajke Extensions
Dark Mode, svi ga volimo

Razgovarajmo o ovim značajkama upravo sada.

1] Promijenite^(Change) zadani format spremanja iz ODT u Word

Prema zadanim postavkama, LibreOffice sprema dokumente u ODT formatu datoteke. Microsoft Word ne podržava ovaj format ; stoga bi bilo teško uređivati isti dokument na više uređaja. Najbolja opcija je osigurati da se dokument sprema u Word formatu.

Da biste to učinili, otvorite LibreOffice Writer i idite na Tools > Options > Load/Save > General . Sada biste trebali vidjeti opciju koja kaže " Zadani format datoteke i postavke ODF-^{(Default File Format and ODF Settings)} a" i odaberite Uvijek spremi kao^{(Always Save As)} . Kada se pojavi padajući izbornik, odaberite Microsoft Word 2007 – 365 , a zatim pritisnite gumb U redu^(OK) kada završite.

Nakon što je to učinjeno, svaki dokument spremljen prilikom korištenja LibreOfficea^{(LibreOffice)} trebao bi automatski odabrati da to učini u formatu koji preferira Microsoft Word .

2] Najvažniji tipkovnički prečaci

Želim bolje koristiti LibreOffice bez potrebe da uvijek koristite miš, preporučujemo korištenje tipkovnice. Evo nekih od najboljih iz gomile:

^(Undo)Izbori Poništi i Ponovi : ^(Redo)Ctrl + Z i Ctrl + Y
Napravite novi odlomak unutar popisa: Alt + Enter
Izvedite prijelom retka bez novog odlomka: Shift + Enter
Ručno izradite prijelom stranice: Ctrl + Enter
Odaberite riječi u cijelosti: Ctrl + Shift + Up/Left/Right/Down dolje

3] Koristite značajku Stilovi

LibreOffice dolazi s mogućnošću prilagođavanja dokumenata na isti način kao i Microsoft Office . Ova se značajka zove Stilovi i o njoj smo mnogo govorili^{(Styles and we’ve talked a lot about it)} u zasebnom članku.

Korisnici mogu kreirati vlastite stilove ako nisu zadovoljni zadanim opcijama koje su im dostupne.

4] Učinite LibreOffice^{(Make LibreOffice)} bržim nego ikad

LibreOffice radi pristojno na sporijim računalima iz našeg testiranja, ali ponekad stvari mogu postati spore. To ima puno veze s memorijom, i kao takav, popravak je jednostavan za postizanje. Dakle, ako smatrate da stvari ne idu tako brzo, onda bi nekoliko promjena u postavkama^(Settings) moglo poboljšati performanse.

Da bi se stvari ponovno brzo pokrenule, samo trebamo povećati količinu memorije koju LibreOffice koristi. To možemo učiniti klikom na Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Memory . U odjeljku koji kaže, Grafička predmemorija^{(Graphics Cache)} , promijenite Koristi^(Use) za LibreOffice na 128 MB. Što se tiče Memorije^(Memory) po objektu^(Object) , promijenite to na 10 MB.

Vratite se na bočnu traku^(Sidebar) i još jednom odaberite LibreOffice , a zatim kliknite ^{(LibreOffice)}Advanced > Java Options . Poništite opciju Koristi ^{(Uncheck Use)}Java runtime okruženje, pritisnite gumb OK i to je to.

Valja istaknuti da se Java prvenstveno koristi za LibreOffice Base , pa ako ne koristite Base , onda uopće nema potrebe koristiti Javu^(Java) .

5] Iskoristite prednost značajke Extensions

Slično, kao i Microsoft Word , korisnici mogu poboljšati LibreOffice Writer korištenjem proširenja^{(by using extensions)} . Da biste otvorili upravitelj proširenja, odaberite Tools > Extension Manager . Sada biste trebali vidjeti nekoliko unaprijed instaliranih proširenja.

Sada, one koje su već instalirane možda neće biti dovoljne. Ako je to slučaj, posjetite https://extensions.libreoffice.org/da preuzmete i instalirate više.

6] Tamni način rada, svi ga volimo

Prednosti LibreOffice Writera

Prema zadanim postavkama, LibreOffice Writer ima bijelu pozadinu, ali je moguće učiniti tamnom. To možemo učiniti klikom na Tools > Options > Personalization . Obavezno odaberite unaprijed instaliranu temu^{(pre-installed theme)} , a zatim kliknite tamnu boju.

Sljedeći korak ovdje je odabir Boje ^(Colors)aplikacije^{(Application)} i promjena pozadine dokumenta^{(Document Background)} u crnu. Na kraju pritisnite Apply > OK i to je to.

Nadam se da ćete uživati u korištenju ovog besplatnog softvera.

Best features and Advantages of LibreOffice Writer

In contіnuation of our small LibreOffice series, we will be discussing the top five tips and tricks for Writer. As you may or may not know, LibreOffice Writer is the free and open-source alternative to Microsoft Word, and it is primarily used by those running the Linux operating systems.

The tool is also available on Windows 10, so if you cannot afford Microsoft Office, then we suggest looking at what LibreOffice has to offer instead of turning to piracy. Us here at The Windows Club do not stand for piracy in any shape or form, so please keep that in mind.

Advantages of LibreOffice Writer

Now, before you begin your journey with LibreOffice Writer, just know that the design does not compare to Microsoft Office. It looks ancient, but that also means it won’t take up a lot of resources when in use. This makes it perfect for older computers that can no longer keep up with what Microsoft has to offer.

The most important keyboard shortcuts
Use the Styles feature
Make LibreOffice faster than ever
Take advantage of the Extensions feature

Let us discuss these features right now.

1] Change the default save format from ODT to Word

By default, LibreOffice saves documents in the ODT file format. This format is not supported by Microsoft Word; therefore, it would be difficult to edit the same document across multiple devices. The best option is to make sure when a document is saved, it is done in a Word format instead.

To get this done, open LibreOffice Writer and navigate to Tools > Options > Load/Save > General. You should now see an option that says, “Default File Format and ODF Settings” and select Always Save As. When the dropdown menu appears, please select Microsoft Word 2007 – 365, then hit the OK button when you’re done.

After this is done, every document saved when using LibreOffice should automatically choose to do so in the Microsoft Word preferred format.

2] The most important keyboard shortcuts

I order to better make use of LibreOffice without having to always use the mouse, we recommend using the keyboard. Here are some of the best of the bunch:

Undo and Redo choices: Ctrl + Z and Ctrl + Y
Create a new paragraph within a list: Alt + Enter
Perform a line break without new paragraph: Shift + Enter
Create a page break manually: Ctrl + Enter
Select words in their entirety: Ctrl + Shift + Up/Left/Right/Down arrow

3] Use the Styles feature

LibreOffice comes with the ability to customize documents in the same way as Microsoft Office. This feature is called Styles and we’ve talked a lot about it in a separate article.

Users can create their own Styles if they are not pleased with the default options available to them.

4] Make LibreOffice faster than ever

LibreOffice performs decently on slower computers from our testing, but there are times when things can get sluggish. This has much to do with the memory, and as such, the fix is simple to accomplish. So, if you feel things are not going as quickly, then a few changes in the Settings could improve performance.

To get things moving quickly again, we just need to increase the amount of memory LibreOffice uses. We can do this by clicking on Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Memory. Under the section that says, Graphics Cache, please change Use for LibreOffice to 128MB. As for the Memory per Object, change that to 10MB.

Return to the Sidebar and select LibreOffice once more, then click on Advanced > Java Options. Uncheck Use a Java runtime environment, hit the OK button, and that’s it for that.

We should point out that Java is primarily used for LibreOffice Base, so if you do not use Base, then there is no need to use Java at all.

5] Take advantage of the Extensions feature

Similarly, to Microsoft Word, users can improve LibreOffice Writer by using extensions. In order to open the extensions manager, select Tools > Extension Manager. You should now see several pre-installed extensions.

Now, the ones already installed might not be enough. If that is the case, visit https://extensions.libreoffice.org/ to download and install more.

6] Dark Mode, we all love it

Advantages of LibreOffice Writer

By default, LibreOffice Writer has a white background, but it is possible to make it go dark. We can do this by clicking on Tools > Options > Personalization. Be sure to select pre-installed theme, then click on the dark color.

The next step here is to select Application Colors and change the Document Background to black. Finally, hit Apply > OK, and that’s it.

I hope you enjoy using this free software.
