Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 6889
pdf creation posible with OOo ?
Last modified: 2003-07-23 09:08:03 UTC
i thought I read it on openoffice.org somewehre when 1.0.0 was released. Is it possible in OOo without installing a particular printer driver or other programs to create color (Adobe standard) pdf files? If not and if it is not too demanding and license issues are in the way, please implement it, because the Adobe PS 3 driver creates PS files, GsView via ghostScript doesn't translate into color pdf files which with gsview look like the OOo original (or was it the adobe ps3 ps file which already didn't look "correct" in GsView and I didn#t get it to look corect, no matter the driver option?)
TM->FT: A new wish for a feature, please have a look, thanks !
this looks like a duplicate of issue 5168
I like to have direct PDF file creation ('save as') and no additional programs or PDF creation through print dialogue. If the mentioned "interface" from issue 5168 is moved to the save as dialogue and GhostScript is still needed, it will still be OK if GhostScript produces PDF files which are always identical to the OOo original. But as Adobe sells its Acrobat PDF creator for 250$ I doubt it is "possible" to implement pdf creation in OOo.
It was my issue, but I have no need for it anymore. Can I close it as wontfix? See issue 'Seperate content creation and content viewing' As OOo formats should be used wide-spreadly, there is no need of course for PDF. this issue is in the ring of issues concerning this matter: issue 7137 'Seperate content creation and content viewing', issue 7138 'write-protection on document-level', issue 6889 'pdf creation posible with OOo ?'
> but I have no need for it anymore close it as invalid it is probably more important just to close this than how you close it.
It is in 643c. I can only assume that the next stable release will also have it in. Hope this helps.
Let's close as a duplicate of the first report. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 2660 ***
As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved duplicate issues. Please see this posting for details. First step in IssueZilla is unfortunately to set them to verified.

Yes it is possible now and it's very good! :-) congratulations for such a good implementation! the pdfs created from Writer files look excellent and they are identical to the Writer files (no layout-errors or such)!
yes
close if available with OOo 1.1 final release.
"close if available with OOo 1.1 final release." Why? Why not closing now? We have it now and we won't kick it out for final!
