Transferring auto corrects from Microsoft Word to LibreOffice Writer

Asked by Janelle Simpson on 2016-10-10

Hi, hoping someone can help me! I am a medical transcriptionist and will be attempting to transition from using Microsoft Office to using LibreOffice, thereby replacing Microsoft Word with Writer.

I have literally thousands of templates that I have turned into auto-corrects in Word. Does anyone know if there is a way to easily transfer these auto-corrects to Writer, or will I have to manually enter them all over again?

Thanks for your help!

I probably should clarify that I will be using the program in Windows 8.1. I attempted to convert everything over to Linux, but the programs I need to use for work are not compatible with Linux.
