PDF Not saving some characters

2014-06-03 Thread Asia Jones
I was hoping to get some help with an issue I have. On two separate occasions, 
when I've made a document into a PDF, Japanese characters, and the elongated - 
symbol have not properly, and have come out as rectangular boxes. Is there any 
way to fix this?
  

Call for evaluation test on W2K12 server

2014-06-03 Thread Yuzhen Fan
We have got some enquiry for AOO support on W2K12 server. Although we have
no official support for W2K12 server for AOO 4.1, I think we could make an
evaluation for this platform.

If you have W2K12 server, and can help testing on this platform over the
next weeks, please send a note to the QA mailing list (
q...@openoffice.apache.org) with your Testlink account[1] (if you haven't a
Testlink account, you can register one). You should also get installation
sets from trunk [2] and report issues in Bugzilla [3].

Greetings Sarah and welcome to Apache OpenOffice. You have started out
in the right place by using our orientation pages. If you are interested
in volunteering with the documentation team you should definitely read
the documentation orientation page at
http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-doc.html if you have not
already. I see that you are subscribed to the documentation mailing list
already. That is where most communication for the documentation team is
done.

I hope to see you on the doc list and I look forward to working with you.

  OK, here is another update:


http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index_droplist.html

What was updated?

- Disabled the old green box for now. Put the focus to the new.

- Using the $NL_LANG variable in "index.html" will pre-set a language
instead of using the browser-guessed language.

- Added hint text - directly below the headline - that the download
comes from Sourceforge.

- Added data for 4.0.1 and 4.0.0, so all 4.x versions are working.

- The 2 links with icons got a cursor with "help" sign.

- When choosing not fitting selections, this is shown to the user with a
hint text what the alternative is.
Then 2 download buttons got a cursor with "not allowed" sign.
Examples:
- Mac OS X 64-bit and AOO 4.0.1 or AOO 4.0.0
- Mac OS X 32-bit and AOO 4.1.0
- Hebrew and AOO 4.0.1

- When browsing with an unsupported OS (that means, other than Windows,
Linux and Mac) then the user gets a hint text that this is not
supported and what to do as alternative.
Then 2 download buttons got a cursor with "not allowed" sign.



What is next?

- Do we want to offer AOO 3.4.1 as last stable 3.x release?

- Updating the "Full vs. Langpack" text in separate window.

- Updating the "analyze.html" webpage to use it as "broken link
reporting tool".

- Separate code and strings.
Then it will be easier to use the same download webpage on all
localized websites, get the same look&  feel everywhere but with the
freedom to translate the text.



Testing:

- Testing via Browsershots.org is somewhat challenging. Often the
requests are expiring before the screenshots are ready.

And still no IE available. :-(

But it looks good so far on Windows, Linux and Mac with Firefox,
Chrome, Opera and Safari.

Do you still have some more suggestions?

So, what do think is better as permanent design?

- The [Reset] button is gone.

- Styled the 3 select boxes as the default look & feel is, hm, just
default. ;-)

- Styled the both download buttons more eye-catching. To keep it simply
I've intentionally avoided to use graphics as I think a text button is
better suited here.

- The icons and links for "full install vs. langpack info" and "Report
broken link" were moved to the sub-green box. Because it's terrible
difficult to keep the text and link status correctly updated for
different selected values.

Another update, seems this weekend I've my productive phase: ;-)

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index_droplist.html

What was done:

- Grey box:

- Bye, bye grey color - hello green freshness.
- The select boxes are prefilled with the browser guessed data.
- The information link has now a (i) icon.
- Added a "Report broken link" - pointing to the debug webpage.
The icon alone is maybe not meaningful enough, therefore an
additional text link.
(Of course the debug webpage needs further work to really work as
report function.)
- All not primary important data are now in the sub-box.
Now it looks more clean.

- Green box:

- All not primary important data are now in the sub-box.
Now it looks more clean and the focus is set for downloading only.

- Links:

- I've moved and deleted links and also adjusted the headlines.
- In the nav bar as well as in the colored boxes.
- Of course it's just a suggestion and can be discussed/changed.

What is not yet working:

- The version drop-down-box has still no effect for others than 4.1.0.
It's a bigger effort as I've to take into account every
available build for every release in the past.
- The [Reset] button is now not working as expected, however maybe
it's indeed no longer necessary?

What do you think?

What are the next steps:

- Make the version drop-down-box work for older releases.
- Improve the styling of the both download links.
- Combine the both green boxes.

- And further suggestions from you.

Thanks in advance for testing. :-)

Re: [CODE]: googletest is now available and can be used

2014-06-03 Thread Jürgen Schmidt
ok, after fixing some problems on the different platforms it seems to
work now at least on Linux, Mac and Windows. In the sal module some
tests are already migrated and can be used as samples for further migration.

It is straight forward and most tests are probably easy to migrate. But
as always the work have to be done. I hope some volunteers are
interested to help and start working on it.

Question or detailed discussion about problems or migration steps are
welcome here on the list and can be discussed.

It's still alive but almost unreachable. Our official forum at

yes, we know POI and Andrea pointed already on thread where this was

When you look in the details Java is used for the SchemaParser and later
on to generate a C++ parser. No plans to use Java during runtime in the
office to parse OOXML. But Java is perfect and productive for the
development of the tooling etc.

"take only" is legal in terms of licensing, but is in my opinion against
the concept of opensource.

Thanks for the update, I think it's good to know that you are already
able to read both versions as described above.

I believe most users of OOXML don't care about the spec and even don't
know that the files produced today are by default OOXML transitional.
OOXML is far more complex than reading one spec ... but nobody cares
about the complexity and simply want pr expect a 1:1 support ;-)

any collaboration under the known project rules/constraints is welcome
and very much appreciated. Open source can work only if you give
something back and don't take only.

LO is a very bad example from my pov and EuroOffice don't give back
either as far as I know. At least not in a way where the project AOO

News about the new OOXML framework.

2014-06-03 Thread Andre Fischer

I would like to give a short status update about the new OOXML framework.

- Created the new module main/ooxml
  There are not yet any makefiles that build the contents of the ooxml/ 
module nor link it into the build process of OpenOffice. However, you 
can use e.g. Eclipse to import the Java projects that are described below.


- Moved the old Office Open XML wiki pages out of the way and create two 
new ones:
  = "OfficeOpenXML" contains an introduction into the OOXML file 
format, a status overview of the implementation progress and links to 
more detailed information.
  = "OOXML" and "ooxml" (uppercase/lowercase) redirect to 
"OfficeOpenXML" so that there is no excuse to not find this page.
  = "OOXML Framework" contains more detailed information about the new 
framework.


- Created a new Java project at ooxml/main/source/framework/SchemaParser 
that parses the XML schema files that come with the ECMA-376 
specification files.
  Its purpose is to read the schema files and create a skeleton OOXML 
parser from it.  This skeleton can then be filled in with code for 
importing certain elements of OOXML documents.


- Created a new Java project at 
ooxml/main/source/framework/JavaOOXMLParser.  Its purpose is testing and 
debugging of and experimenting with the schema parser.  It is not 
intended to become a runtime component of OpenOffice.



The SchemaParser is able to parse all files of the ECMA-376 
specification both in the old (1st edition of 2006) and new (4th edition 
of 2012) versions.  It looks like we need both since the new one is the 
current standard (equivalent to the ISO standard) while the old on is 
actually used.

Not all details of the schema files are handled yet.

The JavaOOXMLParser, based on parser tables created by the SchemaParser, 
is already able to parse the large DOCX file of the 1st edition 
specification.  When pretty printed it is about 90 MB large.  It takes 
the parser about 90 s to read it.  Note that the parser is not optimized 
in any way (if it where then it would be optimized for readability, not 
for speed) and that it writes about 650 MB of log files in the process.


If anyone would like to play with the parsers, I will gladly provide 
more details.


Best regards,
Andre
