------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 4 19:48:23 +0000 2007 ------- tra: Ok from the attached PasteboardPeeker output it becomes obvious that on Mac OS X the only ChemDraw clipboard format that OOo can understand is PICT (the old Apple picture format). Actually Apple suggest that applications do no longer use PICT but unfortunately a lot continue to do so. Even worse some applications use PICT only as a container to transport more current formats like jpeg for instance. OOo has an own PICT filter which fails to work when PICT will only be used as container for other picture formats. For that reason in the OOo clipboard bridge we use the Apple QuickTime converter components to transform every PICT into a bitmap. This may obviously lead to quality losses. There is not much I see that OOo could do here to improve the situation at the moment. It might be possible that OOo's own PICT filter produces better results when importing a ChemDraw PICT but in order to make that work I need to integrate a type detection into the clipboard bridge which differentiates "real" PICTs from those that only serve as container for other formats and only convert the later ones to bitmap. This is what I wanted to do anyway as a developer from the Impress team fixed the OOo PICT filter for me recently but I'm not sure when I'll have the time to actually execute the plan. Atm I'm busy with implementing Drag&Drop for OOo. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
