When one exports to PDF a thirty page document is produced it
looks good except that there are no links from the TOC to the
body of the text - I'm not sure whether Adobe 7 has that
capability.
If you use File > Export to PDF, you should select "tagged PDF"
in the PDF Options-window (or something like that ... I am
using the German version of OOo here ... ;) ).
In the English 1.9.122 there is no reference to tagged PDF in the
File Menu.
I have left out a step here (thought, it was clear ...), sorry. At
first you get the "Export"-dialog (is this the same in the English
version of OOo?) and after inserting a name here and clicking on
"Export..." you get the "PDF options" (or the like) ... And here is
this "tagged PDF" in the German version. Sorry for the hassle ...
Not in the English version. Originally, the options were PDF or XHTML.
I have reinstalled OO 1.9.122 and no have only the PDF option - no
reference to tagged PDF.
"Tagged PDF" does appear in the Help:
Tagged PDF
Selects to export special tags into the corresponding PDF tags. This
can increase file sizes by huge amounts.
Some tags that are exported are table of contents, hyperlinks, and
controls.
This doesn't tell us if the tagged style is beneficial in some way.

There are Export ... and Export to PDF entries in the menu. The
first provides two options:
i Export to PDF
ii Export to XHTML
Neither behaves as expected.
See above. I missed the first step, sorry!

When one exports to XHTML one gets a 122KB file which Firefox
does not undestand ( this is about one tenth the size of the
PDF file).
I think it is better to use "Save as" and to choose HTML as
format there. I have used it a couple of time and it seems to
be "valid" HTML ... ;)
Save as works adequately. The colon on the title page is wonky.
When viewed by Firefox the image is wider than the screen and
there is no horizontal scroll bar.
It would be interesting to see the HTML source code for that ...
Alas I do not know enough HTML to help you on this, but maybe
someone else ...
And maybe it is already reported in IssueZilla ... ;)
Incidentally,
(a) Figure 7 has an inoccuous spelling error. Tittle should
be Title. (b) The W3C Validator reports 31 errors on the html
Wow ... That is too much, I think ... :( I have seen the validator
report at the end of this mail, but I do not know how to fix it,
sorry ... :(

I do not know, how good the implementation of XHML in Firefox
is, it could be a bug ...
Yes, it would be better left out until it is operational.
IIRC there was a thread in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] a couple of weeks ago
about this. IIRC one of our members there has written an
XSLT-script to convert the XHTML code to HTML (I do not find the
mail at the moment, but I found another mail from this guy, where
he mailed this link (maybe it is useful ... ;):
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/commandline.html. He (Christian
Lohmaier) also mentioned this issue:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=7809, but I have
not looked at it yet, maybe it is not related to your problem ... :
(
Following your suggestion, I have Saved as HTML instead of exporting.
This is
adequately but not well rendered by Firefox. Some problems reported in
this thread.
Thanks for the link:

Ich nicht sprecht Deutch. In any event the issue now seems to be
closed.

When one sends to HTML one gets many files. Aside from a wonky
colon on the title page the rendering looks adequate.
I have tried this with an document I am reading at the moment,
but I only get one document, so I cannot confirm this ... :(
What kind of document are you using?
The document I was using was Daniel's draft on Styles.
(0206WG-IntroductionToStyles, converted to odt)
This one I have not yet, but will get it later ... ;)
P.S.: Could you stop sending HTML mails, please, and also wrap
your lines after 68 or 72 characters, please?
Sorry about that. I've added OO Authors to my address book now,
with a "Send Text" flag set.
Thanks a lot ... :)
With Netscape, I used to be able to wrap text at say 68, I don't
seem to be able to do this with
Thunderbird. The Thunderbird does wrap the incoming messages.
I cannot help you with that ... I have never ever used
Thunderbird ... :(
I have appended a copy of my original message, as other isues
are raised, and reduced the line
length where necessary.
I think, that was not necessary, it is in the archive of this
ML ... ;)
<snip old stuff and validator-report, because I cannot help you with
that ... :( >
Have a nice day
Thomas.
Thanks for your help,
Colin W.
