Hi,

yes it does and can save documents.  Perhaps you did not actually read the 
README that explains how to install it properly or examine the 
SETUP_GUIDE.pdf that is supplied?

>From the OOo_1.1.0_README_FIRST.txt



Quick Install Instructions
--------------------------

Please see the included SETUP_GUIDE.pdf for full
information on how to install.

This install has two phases:

Phase 1, by root (aasumes install into /usr/local):

   tar -zxf OOo_1.1.0_LinuxPowerPC_installer.tar.gz

   cd OOo_1.1.0__LinuxPowerPC_installer

   chown -R root:root ./

Then do one of the following:

   ./install --prefix=/usr/local

or

   ./setup -net

I recommend you use:

./setup -net

if you run into any difficulties during installation
or if you want to install custom modules over and
above the normal standard install.



Phase 2:  By each interested user

After phase 1 is over, each interested user
must do cd to the base installed location and do
the following:

   cd /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/
   ./setup

And follow the prompts and remember to select
your jdk installation location.

To run OpenOffice cd to your $HOME and into
OpenOffice.org1.1.0 and run the startup script:

./soffice



Please try by following the provided instructions and let me know if you still 
run into any problems saving anything.

You should not.
