Re: [libreoffice-website] Request for PDF icon in Silverstripe
Hello, Robinson Tryon wrote on 2013-07-15 16:41: AFAIK this type of icon has become somewhat pervasive as a generic PDF icon (even though it does look a lot/exactly like the old Adobe Acrobat icon :-) I might not be sensible enough towards the Free PDF Reader topic, but I also think that that icon is a generic one, recognized by everyone. Still, I wanted to share the request with this list. I don't see a link or text on that page that promotes Adobe Reader. Are there links inside the PDFs we distribute, or? Neither do I - it seems it's just the logo. Now that I read more about the PDF Readers campaign, it looks like they want us to link to their page. Right now we just show PDF-esque icons that (along with the text) link to a particular document, and I think this approach is cleanest. +1 1) Consider replacing the icons with something from here: http://pdfreaders.org/graphics.en.html (perhaps this: http://pdfreaders.org/graphics/pdfreaders-f-22px.png) I think nobody will recognize it then, but maybe it's just me... 2) Consider putting a single link to the PDF Readers page either on the top of the bottom of the page. That sounds like a good compromise to me - linking to their campaign, but not changing the logos. The average user will not recognize their logos... P.S. The idea behind the PDF Readers campaign is interesting, and I wonder if it could be helpful for us to spread adoption of ODF and LibreOffice as well. What do people think about us chatting w/FSFE about running a similar campaign for the ODF family of file formats? Probably something for the marketing list to discuss :) Florian -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: website+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/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-website] Request for PDF icon in Silverstripe
I recently had a discussion about this non existing issue, which is caused by the lack of knowledge of PDF as a standard open format.

Still, I wanted to share the request with this list. We are using the generic PDF icon, which is not referring to a vendor but to a standard format. This icon was introduced with PDF in 1993 for third parties integrating PDF amongst their supported formats (but you must be as old as I am to know this fact). The FSFE campaign is intended to create an icon for free PDF readers, which are intended to read the PDF standard open format. You cannot replace the icon for a group of application with the icon of a file format (recognized since 1993). I was one of the members of the group of Adobe consultants who defined the visuals for PDF, so I am rather informed on the subject. P.S. The idea behind the PDF Readers campaign is interesting, and I wonder if it could be helpful for us to spread adoption of ODF and LibreOffice as well. What do people think about us chatting w/FSFE about running a similar campaign for the ODF family of file formats? Again, the campaign is not for a family of file formats but for a family of applications. I agree on the fact that we would need to push the adoption of ODF by developing a campaign and creating icons for the format, but it is a different discussion. -- Italo Vignoli - italo.vign...@gmail.com mob +39.348.5653829 - sip/jabber it...@libreoffice.org skype italovignoli - hangout/jabber italo.vign...@gmail.com -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: website+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/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-website] Libreoffice.org: torrent downloads: where is the torrent for would-be seeders?

Well, technically they are not in that directory, but are generated on request (as the regular mirrors from the requesting user's region are added as websources) If you want to do some seeding, here is a little _n__ot-server-stressing_ ready-to-use script I made myself. Of course I assume you're on linux and you have qt-transmission installed (otherwise change the script as needed); create your own .sh file, make it executable... and you're done. As most clients suitable for larger-scale seeding allow watching a directory, just downloading the torrents to that directory probably is easier. cd ~ wget -r --no-parent -A.mirrorlist,torrent --limit-rate=40k --wait=20 --reject exe,asc,html,magnet $url_libo_win sleep 1 Absolutely no need to do any recursive reading here. The name is deterministic. Just append .torrent to the regular URL and you'll get the torrent. And when you intend to seed the torrent, there's no point in downloading the actual file using the traditional mirrors. So instead of trying to parse html (the download-directory listing) / using recursive wget, just use rsync to get the listing and filter to your liking to limit the files you want to seed. rsync -r rsync://rsync.documentfoundation.org/tdf-pub | awk '/yourfilter/{print http://download.documentfoundation.org/; $5 ,torrent}' | xargs -r wget instead of doing the filtering in awk, you can also use rsync's switches. But that way you can just create the list of files with rsync once, and then use the file as awk's input. ciao Christian Thank you for your suggestions Christian! Not being a programmer, I'll have to study something here... :) Anyway I'll sure try to use rsync that way. Thanks again!
