How could we publish the Base-Handbuch 5.0 at Lulu? Who has uploaded the other LO-books? Regards Robert I upload and publish the LO books on Lulu, for Friends of OpenDocument Inc. I use a Mac, so it's easy in Preview to print a book (in PDF, formatted for A4) to a PDF of a different page size (in this case, 6x9 inches). However, Lulu's printers often don't like the result, so instead I usually print from Preview to PostScript and the smaller paper size, then use Acrobat Distiller to create a new PDF from the PS file. That process is quick and easy for me to do, so if you want me to do it for you, just ask. I can also upload the book to Lulu for you. But I need to do it before August 1st, because I am going travelling then for 6 weeks, with little or no Internet access much of the time. --Jean -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-documentation] Help Authoring Extension
Hi, I've spent some time today fixing the HelpAuthoring extension, and together with the Regina's fix (thank you, Regina!), I think it got to a usable state :-) https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Help describes where to get it, and the basic usage. More detailed user manual can be found here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/HelpContent The .xhp's generated by the extension are now nicely formatted, which means that when you save a .xhp in the help repository, it will likely be a big diff the first time (due to the changed formatting - strings should be preserved); but from then on, the changes should be tiny, as the format will be much better defined. Also the editing directly in LibreOffice seems to be neat usable. There might be rough edges still - but I hope no blocker any more. In other words - *no excuses* for not writing help any more ;-) Please do use it, and if you experience trouble, either fix it yourself: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/contrib/dev-tools/tree/helpauthoring/README or let me know - the xslt that implements the export filter is trivial. Would be good to start thinking of a workflow between the developers and the documentation team - I imagine developers could stub help for things they are developing, and the documentation team members would then finalize and de-hackerize that, but ideas how to grow the community of help authors much appreciated. [BTW - if you are wondering about the editable wikihelp: no, I'm not abandoning the idea; but that is a long-term quest, and the help needs improving _now_.] All the best, Kendy -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
