if you want to create a PDF with options on the command line, you can use the Java application OOoPDFConverter. It calls OOo via API and passes the options to OOo in headless mode. http://sourceforge.net/projects/ooopdfconverter/ There is also a version, that works with LibreOffice: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lopdfconverter/ Regards, Andreas -- ## Developer LibreOffice ## Freie Office-Suite für Linux, Mac, Windows ## http://LibreOffice.org ## Support the Document Foundation (http://documentfoundation.org) ## Meine Seite: http://www.amantke.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@api.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@api.openoffice.org
