------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Feb 17 05:29:52 -0800 2005 ------- I think PDF export should work in WYSIWYG manier - if a user chooses some e.g. Times font, then Times should be in PDF, if user chooses Helvetica - then Helvetica. If one font property - font's size is exported to the PDF file, then why another font property - family name is always changed to Helvetica ? If it's not possible to get this simple solution into 2.0, then we should use any other solution, which works with the majority of international characters, e.g. Lithuanian or Russian, not only iso8859-1. At least we can make a checkbox "use system font for form fields" in "Export to PDF" dialog window. On the other case there would be problems when pushing OpenOffice.org to public sector, e.g. there is a Project on Open Standards in Local Authorities in Lithuania and Latvia (see http://europa.eu.int/idabc/en/document/3802/469 ) and we plan to suggest to install at least one copy of OOo in every governmental and public institution in order to publish the information in open formats (e. g. PDF, because majority of users can read PDF and fill PDF forms without buying any software). Currently most documents in Lithuanian governmental institutions are published in MS Office formats partly because it is necessary to buy aditional expensive software for publishing in wide spread open format - PDF and PDF forms. OOo 2.0 could replace expensive Adobe Acrobat for generating PDF forms but only if there would be an ability to enter Lithuanian characters (iso8859-13/Windows-1257 encoding). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
