Hello chuck,

If you're familiar with Windows, but are a little confused on Linux, I would strongly suggest checking out Zorin OS. I've used it in the past and I've found it stable and fast. I find it great for those who are new to the Linux world but are comfortable with navigating Windows.

Zorin OS comes in different flavors, but you only need the Core version. It has everything you need and more :)
 
I tried opening in Libre Office no luck at all. Any ideas Gus? I will just send you a screenshot of 1 obit if i cant find a solution i guess i will have to do them all over it will take several hours theres 213 items.
Thank,s Chuck

jmarket Zorin is a good idea i have tried it, and many distros. I will stick with Linux Mint Cinnamon 18.1 64 bit iam learning it ok. I do like it 100% better than Windows it seems more secure i dont use antivirus or anything like that, i dont have to to worry so much about hackers now. I watch You Tube Video,s about scammer,s it seem, s the ones from India have that accent there easy to identify. Of course theres hacker,s in United States.

Iam not real good with Linux i use it for gmail, You Tube and search. I can use the terminal pretty good and get around ok.
I get alot of tips off the net, some good but some so bad i have had to install Mint all over again. You have to start over again and takes alot time. Sorry for all the yaking just my way to communicate i cant talk at all i have had 2 strokes iam in a nursing home in Eaton, Ohio iam 63.
Thank,s Chuck
