------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 24 18:19:16 -0700 2005 ------- G'day all, This is a very important issue, especially where the final result is to be included as website content, either HTML or as say a presentation. Therfore it applies to not only Writer but virtually all components of OO. First of all let me state that I have no time for Microsoft and a very, very big fan of OpenOffice.org . I would dearly love for more of my clients to use OpenOffice.org, also helping it to mushroom. Unfortunately Microsoft are ahead on the graphics resampling issue. Saving a document (created with Word) as HTML conveniently results in a sub-directory (sub-folder) with resampled versions of the images. It's then easy for even the least technically-minded of my clients who maintain their own pages with Word to upload the htm as well as the folder of resampled images. Microsoft also have an option in PowerPoint to resample inserted images, thus reducing the size of the presentation. As digital camera images become bigger by default, and many users don't understand file sizes, adequate image resolution etc the problem is only getting worse. Perhaps Writer etc should do the resample (down) automatically but could record the original image source location in case of the user wanting to resize the image up again at any point. Fair enough the original image would not be accessable if the document is emailed, uploaded etc but the document should in that case be layed out as the author intended for others to see it (ala PDF). The author would normally still have access to the original (and the recorded link in the source document to the original graphics file). At worst, if the graphics file was moved, the author would just have to re-insert it IF they wanted to resize upward again. As someone else pointed out, this is a great opportuninty to get ahead of MS.
