I use OpenOffice as much as I can but now I have a bewildering problem:
How do I work with pixels in Draw? Like many people I want to do graphics for the web. Places in the OpenOffice.org website mention web graphics but there is not a single reference to saving an image at a fixed pixel size. This is critical to website design.
If it doesn't support pixel dimensions could you please explain why this is?
- select pixels as default measurement unit in OOo Draw: Tools->Options->Drawing->General->Unit of measurement:Point
- set the dimensions for page: Format->Page->Width/Height
However, I would NOT recommend using OOo Draw for web graphics, it simply was not intended for this task and will lack important features (like antialiasing in the drawings created with it), much better choices are Inkscape (http://inkscape.org) for creating illustrations and Gimp (http://gimp.org) for photo editing.
Here are a couple of tutorials about creating illustration with OOo Draw: - http://oooauthors.org/en/members/tutorials/draw/eyedraw/ - http://oooauthors.org/en/members/tutorials/draw/treedraw/
