Hi,

Olivier Hallot wrote on 2011-12-01 20:50:

I also would like to say that I am OK to offer our resources, time and
knowledge to projects we are benefiting from (e.g.AskBot). But not to
host any project that call for the same resources if we don't use it, or
if TDF does not foster it.


of course.

No.



But then, Draw can open (most) PDFs. Maybe not ideal for 
what PDFs are intended for, but works.

It depends on what you want to achieve when editing PDF. In the 
accessibility community, PDFs often cause headaches because most people 
don't know how to produce accessible documents. If your ODF source file 
is not accessible and if you forget to check the Tagged PDF and 
Export bookmarks options when exporting, you end up with a file where 
fixing the accessibility issues costs a lot of money (= price of Adobe 
Acrobat + time investment).
I don't know if importing PDF into Draw and editing it would be the 
solution for accessibility. For example, I don't know if you can check 
the reading order of text in Draw.


Best regards,

Christophe

[tdf-discuss] Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Standalone PDF

2011-12-02 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)

No.

Most of the apps all go together.  Base is sometimes a separate thing that can 
be added but i don't think Base works on it's own.  In GnuLinux (such as 
Ubuntu, Mageia, RedHat) it might be possible to just use your normal package 
manager to find and install something else that does a convert to pdf.  In 
Windows there are a few things, perhaps doPDF but they are independant 
projects.  Google search (or Bing or whatever) might help you find a 3rd party 
app to do the job.

Regards from
Tom :)

 Microsoft has been experimenting with various low-cost/no-cost to the

 Nothing to do with office suite quality, and everything to do with
 trying to convert Joe Sixpack into thinking that software for a service
 is the way things have always been done.


Snag is they are not going to get the margins that way and they will

 No. This can happen if accidently a poster uses reply to all instead
 of reply-to-list, without trimming the posters address.

 I use Seamonkey and there I see nothing like reply-to-list, there is
 only (1)Antwort auf dieses Nachricht and (2)Antwort an Absender and
 alle Empfänger.
 (1) generates a mail to reply-to if set and to from in the other cases.
 (2) generates a mail to reply-to if set and CC from and other CCs,
 or if reply-to is not set to from and CC other CCs.

 So how to reply-to-list?

If I recall well, there was an addon - at least for thunderbird in early
days. But couldn't find somesuch during a quick search.

As I don't use Seamonkey, I don't know if and where this funktion
exists. The oldstyle Netscape/Thunderbird way was to use reply-to-all
and trim the posters address.

Maybe someone else can help.

By the way: Adding information like that, was one part of my intention
to improve the communication style info.

not that serious
Given $my_cool_software=Thunderbird;

With $my_cool_software reply-to-list is offered for each mail
containing a list-post -header so Your problem is solved if You just
use $my_cool_software.
/not that serious

 Better yet, try it on the dev list as this seems to be where the request
 is originating from.

 That change is already in effect on the dev list, but I think it's not
 comparable to other lists at LibO. :)

Depends, *what* You compare.

Regarding traffic it's one of the most active lists -
yes: not comparable to any tdf list.

Information is provided continuously in a very (high volume) reader
friendly fashion -
yes: not comparable to any tdf list.

But in my eyes that's not the question.

The question is, where to go regarding communication style.
reply-to mangling hereby is *one* thing to look at.

Yes, LibreOffice does have full PDF creation capability, and no it does 
not provide a separate PDF editor, you must download and install the 
entire package.
