[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
Hello! "On the long run - perhaps." I beg to disagree. When implemented it would facilitate my work immediately. "This is a thing which can easily be done by the software which generates the EPS file [...]" Please have a try with Igor Engraver 1.7.

[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
OK, Fernand; thanks. But do you mean that I shall go through the four steps, after downloading and installing GSview, every time I insert a music example in an ODT document? Wouldn't it be much better if a preview settings feature was implemented in LO itself? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODF-documents-tp2378450p2399456.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Fernand: "when the PDF is made with the Postscript output, then it's using the vector graphic parts of the picture not the preview!" OK, I see; then I would simply like to request a better preview. I understand the file size of the ODT document goes up, but I would prefer that instead of the current situation. It would be interesting to find out how small an improvement in preview resolution would yield an enough good result for me. Are you a programmer, Fernand? May I ask you to look into this? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODF-documents-tp2378450p2397159.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
Thank you, Fernand, for your suggestions. However, from my point of view I would rather have OOo or LO perform at the level of Microsoft Word when it comes to inserted EPS's instead of making the user do extra work. Isn't it feasible to have EPS show in ODT documents at a higher resolution while retaining the earlier good result in the PDF file? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODF-documents-tp2378450p2396842.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
I have made two test files with the kind of EPS images I work with. I put the test together with OOo in the ODT document and then printed a PDF file of that document with CUPS-PDF; I hope I managed to upload and attach them here properly. With the files I want to show my problem and that is the poor quality of the EPS images in the ODT document. The resulting PDF file is on the contrary very good; it is e.g. better than if I had made the original document in DOC format in Microsoft Word. But the ODT file that I work with when writing my texts and books has such poor EPS illustrations that I cannot rely on them for quick controls of what they contain.

[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
Salut Jean-Baptiste, and thank you for your response. How do I insert a high resolution preview in my EPS images? I do not know how to manipulate the EPS files themselves, I just insert the result I get from the other program into OOo and the ODT document. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODF-documents-tp2378450p2383293.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Halló Sveinn, and thanks for your reply. I don't know if my EPS images are vector graphics or bitmapped.

[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents
Thank you, Fernand, for your reply. However, I have not been able to get better EPS images by printing to a PDF file. The problem is not coupled to PDF export, although OOo's built-in PDF export is not very good either. The problem is the poor quality of the inserted EPS images in the actual ODT document, both on screen and on print-out. Regarding using another format than EPS: For image creation I use an application that can only export to EPS. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODF-documents-tp2378450p2382819.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

[tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODT documents
"If, instead of exporting to pdf, you print to a file with a postscript printer driver, and then convert that file to pdf you will be fine." No, it is not about exporting to PDF, it is what you get in the ODT document, both on screen and on print-out. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/EPS-images-in-ODT-documents-tp2369889p2382730.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
