Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 22452
Export to PDF output cannot be imported by Adobe Reader for Palm OS
Last modified: 2004-01-27 16:40:17 UTC
To simulate: 1. New a Writer document 2. Type in "This is a testing", typeface as Times Roman 3. Select Export to PDF 4. Open the Adobe (Acrobat) Reader for Palm OS 5. Try to pick the output file as import source An error saying "This document is not tagged PDF, and so does not have the additional information that would made the document appearance between when viewed on the Palm. ... We will attempt to add this information. This requires some guessing asto intended way to present the content, so the result may not appear as expected." When confirmed, another error saying "Error converting to tagged PDF: error in tagging".
Please Attach the documents which make this problem, so we can test it/faster to confirm. (Without the documents, we cannot confirm the problem easily/need more time) Don't forget to cut other part of the documents, so the file size is small, but we still able to see the problem.

Actually this is a bug inside Adobe's tagging software; nevertheless since we now with Adobe's help worked out what actually happens and the fix in Adobe's software is not likely to be available to the public anytime soon i'll build in a workaround that will not increase the size of our PDF code by much.

fixed in CWS vcl7pp1r4
Can I have an early review? I know how to compile the source.
In that case if you have the vcl source code already, you can update vcl/source/gdi/pdfwriter_impl.[hc]xx to the branch label "cws_srx645_vcl7pp1r4". The resulting vcl library you can put under an existing OOo1.1. If you do not have the vcl code already simply do a cvs checkout to the above mentioned branch label; the effect should be the same.
I have tested the patch. It works for English but not for CJK.

Strange. I'll need to have another look. Thank you for testing this out. Strange thing is that the original problem had nothing to do with language specifics at all but only with page structure. So i guess you uncovered another problem.
What's the problem with the CJK-PDF you attached ? It converted fine for me - no message about a failed conversion.
The conversion reported no error but the Chinese characters are not properly shown. I have tried other Chinese PDF files downloaded from other web sites. They can be properly viewed by my Palm.
I created issue 22919 as a followup for this since the chinese display is another problem than the conversion issue. I set you on CC so you get notified on progress.
target adjusted
