Open Office PDF Out

[Phillip Qin]

I can export open office files to PDF without problem. Not sure other file
types.

Subject: [TLUG]: Open Office PDF Out

   Has anyone tried the PDF output of Open Office 1.1.2?

   I hit the PDF button at the top of the screen, and got an output very
different from what I get when I print to the PDF device.  The main problem
is that the PDF button does not know how to handle PostScript objects.  I
get the EPSI preview embedded in my PDF file, although the PostScript object
prints properly.  If I print to the PDF device, I get the PostScript object
properly embedded in my file.

   It looks like Adobe Acrobat 7 compresses output to the printer a bit.
The fonts and the page are noticeably squished.  XPDF's output looks like
printer output straight out of Open Office.
