Using Openoffice 1:2.3.0-1ubuntu5.3 on Ubuntu Gutsy. I installed extension
svg-import-1.2.2.oxt (from www.ipd.uka.de/~hauma/svg-import/). The
extension appeared to be enabled under extensions. However, when I try to
add a figure to a slide (under Impress - the same issue occurs with
Writer), SVG does not occur in the filter list. When I try to directly
paste an SVG image into the window, Openoffice crashes.

I have Java JRE 1.6.0_03 installed. On the webpage, the documentation states
that it needs Java 5. So, I installed JRE 1.5.0_13 and switched the JRE
used in openoffice. Restarted. Found that the above problem still persists.

I do need to use SVG files in my presentations (EPS files are too big) that
are scalable. Any suggestions ?

PS : Why does openoffice.org does not have inbuilt support for a file format
that is so well specified and fairly old ?
