Hi Regina,

Thanks for the advice.

I need the formula to be added to a Calc spreadsheet. Is there another
way of adding it?

Regards,

Jacques

 Open a Draw document. Insert  Object  OLE object  Object Type 
 'LibreOffice Formula'. Depending whether you have already saved the 
 formula to file or not, you need 'Create New' or 'Create from file'. 
 When the formula is finished, click on a free part of the document or 
 hit Esc-Key. 
 
 Now click on the formula, so that it gets green handles, but does not
 go 
 into edit mode. File  Export to PDF. In that dialog, in the upper
 part 
 check Selection. OK. 
 
 If you need a larger picture and do not want do enlarge the formula
 via 
 basis font size, then use the PositionSize dialog. You have to
 uncheck 
 'protect size' and then to check 'keep ratio' and then change the
 size 
 of the object. 
 
 You can use Writer too, but in Writer you cannot resize the formula 
 without changing its basis font size. 
 
 Why do you need a formula in pdf? Perhaps there is a better way for
 your 
 purpose. 
 
 Kind regards 
 Regina

No it is the same way as for inserting into a Draw document. So simple 
follow that description. A Calc sheet has besides the table of cells a 
so called Draw page. There things are located like charts, drawing 
objects and control fields (e.g. button) and Math-formulas.


If you need it often, you should add the insert formula-icon to your 
toolbar. It is in category Insert. You get the Math-editor in 
inplace-mode, but you can use it same as calling it as separate 
module, only zooming does not work.


Kind regards
Regina

Hi,

Thanks for the advice.

The equation will not export to a od writer format. I have printed to
file (.ps) but could not export to a pdf (apparently my printer does not
have that option)

Tried renaming the profile. Also doesn't work.

Cheers,

Jacques

 Hi :) 
 Can you put the equation into Writer and then export to Pdf from
 there? 
 
 I have heard that it's better to Print to file and choose Pdf rather
 than PS in order to embed the fonts into the Pdf.  I've not been able
 to try  compare this myself yet.   
 
 A 3rd idea is to try re-naming the user-profile as it often seems to
 fix weird problems

 Hopefully someone will have a better answer soon tho! 
 Good luck and regards from

 Could you please let us know which version of LibreOffice you are 
 running?  Also, which operating system (Windows 7 or Ubuntu 11.10 
 etc.)?

Thanks Peter,

Following your advice I researched some more and used ps2pdf to convert
the file. It uses gs in the background.
