Hi all, Here's a summary reply:
- QXD import: The Document Liberation project is working on an import library, but it's not a priority for them. Moreover, whatever DLP comes up with will only cover XPress files up to version 4. Later versions are encrypted, which means DLP cannot write a QXD filter for these files without violating the notorious DMCA. - XTG import: You can only import XTG files into a text frame. - PDF-Import: If there are any issues with PDF import in 1.5.2, please file a bug report and attach the file to the report.
