even some real code, thanks!)
I've been working on code for automatically generating a document, and
converting to pdf. I'm currently using the storeToURL method,
specifying the writer_pdf_Export filter (all cribbed from code obtained
by grubbing around on the net). That works reasonably well for simple
export-A4-to-pdf.
However, I've just found I also need to do a 'booklet' conversion as
well - A5 pages, printed 2-up on A4, and the pages correctly ordered.
Now, this is an option that seems to exist, interactively, only under
the 'print' menu, not on 'export as pdf'. So:
1) is this available at all for pdf conversion?
2) if so, how do I use it from within OOo basic?
currently PDF export filter doesn't take into account the printer
settings.
There is an open issue for that [1], you may want to vote for it.
3) where on earth do I look for a how-to-do-it? api.openoffice.org
doesn't seem to have much in the way of introductory material.
if you need information on how to use the current available PDF export
configuration properties, may be the mail thread here [2] can help you.
A better mail list to ask for this kind of information would be
