If there's a reason to believe that this can't be done by a) reading 
documentation b) trying some nifty tricks then I believe, you should contact 
gimp-devel list and ask them to provide some support to the requirements you 
ask. This is the normal procedure you do in FOSS world.

Ofcourse, but until you understand the software workings of these tools like 
Gimp and OoO, you are at loss because either someone has to figure out how it 
all works up at source level or be able to liason with the developers of these 
softwares through public/private means including contacting them on the mailing 
list.

Here's your temporary salvation:
