Most computer vendors install extra/trial software on new computers. The fonts supplied with OpenOffice are open source, not proprietary. Four of the fonts you used are proprietary fonts supplied with Microsoft products. The computer had never been to a tech until I took it to get my old files. I never downloaded anything but Open Office. It had never been updated from when i bought it. Tsering wrote:My old computer was Windows 7.

If you have access to your old Win 7 computer, the fonts can be transferred to your new computer. You can search for those fonts and download them from various font sites when they are installed, OpenOffice should find them on its next startup and your formatting should restore to your heart's desire. Systematic use of Styles will rectify any major fault in a few minutes - as an example, I can download a complete unformatted text of War and Peace (half a million words!) and present it in reasonable book layout, chaptered and all, in ten minutes. the second is that you may (inadvertently) have installed a version of OpenOffice that uses A4 pages by default, rather than US Letter that also will change formatting, and you might even have a combination of both. The page formatting may have changed for a number of reasons: the first is the substitution of different fonts - OpenOffice does its best to match the metrics of a missing font, but that often changes formatting. Your Windows 7 computer may have come with Microsoft Office installed on it, which could have supplied the fonts in question.
