No, I can't.

This place has a whole load of MS-Office files. I'm trying to convert them
to OpenOffice. They're not technically-gifted, so any variation from what
they do in MS-Office is a show-stopper.

On Office, they open the file and press the "print" button. In OOo, this
isn't currently working :-(

In that the users will not jump through hoops to adopt new software - if
it doesn't work in the way they're used to, they won't use it. So far OOo
isn't doing as well as I'd hoped...
