Hello Martin.

Thanks for your reply and your help.

I have heard good things about Ximian-gnome, so I am going to install the
complete thing on my SuSE7.3 and have a look.

It's far too large to download with my slow Internet connection, so I am
buying it on CD from The Linux Emporium here in the UK.

Abiword is an excellent word processor. For me, it just lacks the facility of
being able to print all odd pages or all even pages. I know I can do it by
printing each page separately, but it would be good if it could be done
automatically - says I being lazy!

Cheers

Keith
