I'm still 'round here and working at some larger FOP-RTF doc, to get RTF working much better and make it more transparent. This month I'm moving, bigger appartment, sort of...so maybe it'll have to wait 'til August. If no one else commits patches until then, I'd like to send the further suggestions 'bout future development of FOP-RTF (docbook/html/pdf) and patches to get nested tables working (only >Word 2003) as well as GIF images (transform to RTF-embedded Bitmaps) and filter page-number-citations (to avoid the question marks). Maybe I'll move that GIF to the end of the list and give page breaks a higher priority... While reading through the code and Microsoft's RTF-spec, I found some differences, esp. the use of optional or newer control words (/*) in conjunction with lists, tables and bookmarks. Maybe this is the main source of errors when comparing OpenOffice, WordPad and Word, I assume OpenOffice does not drop control words as it should while WordPad does some good guessing (or default transformation for numbered lists are simple bullets). The last thing I did was marking sections from the RTF-spec to make good testing documents. Maybe FOP-RTF becomes a basis for OpenOffice-improvements *g* and maybe it's not OpenOffice->ODF->XSL-FO but XSL-FO->FOP->RTF->OpenOffice *gg* "Jetzt Handykosten senken mit klarmobil - 14 Ct./Min.!
