------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Apr 28 09:24:29 +0000 2008 ------- malvineous: you correctly described the use case that the filter is designed for: import a PDF so that it looks as similar as possible to the original. This is not possible in Writer as a continuous text flow is in contradiction to layout preservation. Writer would be the right choice for the use case that only the content but not the layout of the PDF is important and that the content should become editable flow text. IMHO this can be achieved by providing an import filter odf->Writer and this still would be my suggestion for the next step. I know that others think that they can tweak the PDF import in Writer directly to get slightly better layout stability but IMHO this is much effort for a still not perfect solution, a bad cost-benefit ratio. OTOH an odg/odp import for Writer would give us a more useful capabilities, e.g. ppt import and the like. But these considerations should be done in a new issue. This one is too old and too long already. It's hard to keep the overview and it would be better to start anew with fresh minds and fresh ideas. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
