I've found OpenOffice.org infinitely annoying in typing up my notes for
school, all the "features" such as automatic starting of bulleted and
numbered lists to state the biggest offenders are really annoying, that
along with the startup time OpenOffice has just so I can type up a few
simple notes has left me very inclined to switch to a simple rich text
editor. I tried Abiword but after the first time using it I found that
the printouts were tiny, the ratio of width and hight are correct for an
A4 paper size but it prints out absolutely tiny and I use "Letter" sized
paper. I have not been able to change the paper size as of yet since I'm
still just learning the user interface but I would appreciate any help
with this. I'm using Abiword in Windows right now because my printouts
look much better there, in Linux the colours and shades come out faded a
little because the driver is probably a little light on the ink.
