LibreOffice + language packs (latest version: 6.1.4)
Applause. It seems both of your arguments (Puppus & Vic) are valid. This is great that you are offering different compression choices. That, in my opinion is the basis of Puppy and Linux, itself. Let the user decide which they choose to add. Personally, I like the version that works quicker but there is also a need to save space, especially with Libre and other large pets/sfs'. Both versions are very compelling for different reasons.
Thank you for the additional options.
Kind regards,

Trebuchet and Calibri Fonts
Hi
I'm quite new to Puppy and have managed to install LibreOffice ok and some Extra Fonts I found at the beginning of this thread, but.. there are still 2 fonts I want.
The fonts I'm looking for as I have to use them a lot are Trebuchet and Calibri. Could anyone tell me where to find and install these please?
I'm using Puppy 6.0 Tahr and LibreOffice 4.3.2.2

Calibri and Trebuchet are owned by Microsoft. If you have a relatively recent version of Windows available, you'll probably be able to find them in Windows' fonts directory (\Windows\Fonts).

Thanks for the update!
@SJC
Partial solution: LibreOffice now contains "free fonts Carlito and Caladea to replace proprietary Microsoft C-Fonts Calibri and Cambria, to get rid of font related issues while opening OOXML files" (quoted from the blog link above).
Another option: I don't remeber now but somewhere in the forum there's an application by Shinobar called Winfonts, which looks for the fonts of your Windows install and enables them in Puppy.

libreoffice-4.4-en-es-xz.sfs mirrored; here's LibreOffice-4.4.0_en-US_xz.pet (214 mb) and LibreOffice-4.4.0_en-US_xz.sfs(176mb).
Re: LibreOffice 4.4
Most of that package originates from Microsoft's "core fonts for the web" package, which was pulled from distribution around 2002. (See this Wikipedia article for more details. Also, found this page while trying to remember the name of the original package and seeing if it could still be obtained from Microsoft's archives, interestingly.)Puppus Dogfellow wrote:i've been using mswebfonts_525.pet to get ms fonts on puppy since slacko 5.3.3 or so. i'm having trouble tracking down the original source...
It also appears to contain the Lucida fonts from Apple, which is strange for a package named "mswebfonts." And one or more other stray fonts, as well.

Re: LibreOffice 4.4
The original source link was deleted because of copyright infringement. To avoid copyright issues, other software usually includes a setup to use equivalent free fonts instead. I've tested the latest LibreOffice versions and font equivalence seems to work decently.Puppus Dogfellow wrote:i've been using mswebfonts_525.pet to get ms fonts on puppy since slacko 5.3.3 or so. i'm having trouble tracking down the original source...
