Hi, I've been trying to publish an article to less wrong for about a week, but I'm unable to copy the text to the post area and submit it.
It says: Submitting, then it stops and nothing happened.
When I sliced the entire text in small parts (all copied from Open Office) I manage to publish drafts, some with errors such as missing spaces.
When I re-copy from the drafts to another, bigger draft, then many spaces become missing, and part of the text is aligned to the right border, part isnt.
The text was mostly written in open office. I would like help from someone who has a normal Office. If you post me a message with your e-mail in the private message area, I can send it to you, so you see if you can either publish it in drafts, and then copy it again to me in a publishable form, or edit somethign in office that I'm unable in open office, and send the file back to me so I can publish.
I know this is asking a lot, and I would be thankful for anyone who helps me out of this conundrum.
If you copy the text through an editor that doesn't use formatting (like notepad or gedit), you can get safe text to the LW article editor (while losing the formatting, which you can then manually recreate).
