Issue ID: 125474
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Writer Chokes opening large PDF
Product: Writer
Version: 4.1.0
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows, all
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: open-import
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Writer is unable to open very large PDF files. There may be an issue with
insufficient memory allocation? I am enclosing the file in question so that
you can try it yourself.
I personally would prefer using Open Office as my pdf reader of choice, and for
smaller files it works admirably for that purpose. This one is 73 megabytes
and it apparently makes the Writer application choke for lack of memory.
See what you can do, gentlemen. Adobe reader sucks. I'll never use it again
because they bundle malware with their mandatory updates. I can read this pdf
in Google Chrome, but Chrome has no navigation controls to help get around in
such a large pdf and that makes it inconvenient and very ungainly.
This is an area in which Open Office could make a relatively minor adjustment
and become a leader in this niche.
FYI, I'm on a Dell 630D with Vista Business and 8GB of RAM. It's a dual core
Pentium running at 1.8Ghz when Intel doesn't have it throttled down.
