Hey!
New discussion here... well maybe old discussion from maybe a new angle.
I'm told OO.Draw isn't meant to be Publisher and is more meant to be
Visio.
In other words diagrams, flow charts, etc... but not Desktop Publishing
As a result people have recommended Scribus to me as an alternative to
Publisher.
If this is all true... why does OO.Draw begin with an A4 page?
Might this be the main reason for the confusion? They see an A4
page... people think it is printable, that it reflects a page... like
a Desktop Publishing program.
Any thoughts folks?
Hmmm... On my system, it defaults to a U.S. letter page. However, Draw
is used for creating umm... drawings and sometimes people have been
known to print them. What should it default to, other than standard
paper sizes, if people print their drawings? While you can do some DTP
functions with OpenOffice, it's not as capable in that regard as a
proper DTP app.
