Hi, I just tried the PDF import extension...and although I didn't understand beforehand *how* I would be editing my PDF file, it wasn't difficult to figure out that it was all about text boxes. I had tried a similar application online with not very good results, but because this time the file was opened in OO.org Draw, I had more control. For example, I zoomed in while inserting text boxes and making changes, then out again to check that all was as I wanted.
The person in our group who was most needing this function was hoping for a PDF form he could "fill in." This is not exactly that, but it does get him what he needs--i.e. a way to fill out a form he uses every month (in which there is some info that remains the same and some that changes) on his computer and then print it, rather than filling it out by hand. Thanks very much for all the work on this plugin!! Sr. Dorothy OMUG News Editor The Olympia Microcomputer Users Group Olympia, WA http://olymug.org
