   Hi, David, not sure if you got your LibreOffice doc back yet or
not. There are some good support options for Libre at
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/. These include mailing lists,
FAQ, online help, etc. you can use the forums at
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/forum though you need to register
first (it's free). I also use the forums at
http://en.libreofficeforum.org/ as well.
   Regarding your doc file though, you should still have the original
file even though you exported it as PDF. Libre does not overwrite the
existing file assuming you saved it in .DOC or .ODT originally. Try
the recent documents list in Libre under File > Recent Documents.
