I don't have SO7 yet; if it will reformat a doc to a specified number of 
pages, then I'll order a copy!
I have OO 1.0.2 but cannot find a Page format/sheet menu item on it.  
Ditto with SO6.
I can get Page preview, but the menu item is Format, and it does nothing 
when in Page preview mode.
I also noted that on my system (Celeron 1 gHz, 384 MB RAM) both OO and 
SO6 really slow down in page preview mode.
Could you send me a screen shot of it?  Probably best to send it to me 
privately, since it is not a good practice to clutter the list with 
graphics.

Thanks for reading my article.  I'm not selling WP8;  just trying to 
inform people so they can let Corel know that there is continued 
interest in a native Linux WP.
