Installing Manual

Installation - Mac OS X
Continue with the installation of OpenOffice.org and all its companion programs
(DLCompat, ESP Ghostscript, and Fondu) as instructed on the screens.
At one point you will get a warning that XDarwin does not exist in the Applications
directory. Don't panic. The program is just looking for XDarwin, which is the default
platform it runs on; it does not know that you will be running it from X11. You will correct
this the first time you run OpenOffice.org, at which point you will instruct your Macintosh
system to use X11 for OpenOffice.org.
Step 5: Launch X11
At the moment, the Mac OS X port of OpenOffice.org runs on X11. You will always need
to launch X11 before you launch OpenOffice.org.
The X11 system resides under Applications > Utilities. Click on X11 to launch it.
