Yes, AFAIK postscript doesn't support that. If there's some tool that is able to extract and add bookmark information to a PDF, you can try generating the PDF directly from LibO and injecting its bookmarks into the one generated by ps2pdf. > With SVG support, may be a conversion of my EPS's to SVG will solve the > problem. > Cheers, steve > > On 15/03/11 21:04, Fernand Vanrie wrote: >> Steve, >> >> I filed 2 years ago a issue on OO for that. >> Indeed it blocks a lot of efforts made to make PDF happen, and the >> tool is still useless for many (professional) users.

That takes some time, and the preview gets cached, and therefore it can be uncached. I personally saw the worst possible effects of this: a document with several big EPS images would take long scrolling up and down. http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=77068 - The one this thread is about: http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14163 But, in a nutshell, it is not easy: embedding postscript in PDF needs some kind of conversion. It's not only LibO and OOo, pdflatex also needs vectorial pictures to be in PDF. Rendering eps in OOo/LibO is quite harder than rendering other vectorial formats, because postscript is a programming language, so LibO would need to understand postscript, and would still have to re-interpret it each time the image is displayed. But I'm glad it supports EPS the way it does, it is already helpful. Even if I have to print to postscript, at least I can use eps images directly. >> >> Greetz >> >> Fernand >>> LO, also OO do not create pdf's correctly from documents containing >>> EPS's. >>> This occurs on 3.3.1 on Suse and OSX. >>> The PDF is not created with the vector data of the EPS but the low >>> resolution bitmap (if there is one) used for positioning. >>> To create a correct PDF I must print to file (PS) and use PS2PDF. >>> >>> Is this a bug? >>> >>> steve >>> >> >> -- Nuno J.
