------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jan 30 07:49:58 -0800 2005 ------- Hello to OpenOffice.org Team Please consider a popular concept for OOo - Standalone OOo Reader with Access Rights management ------------------------------------------------------ (A) Standalone OOo Reader - An easier way to share OOo documents with people, who donât have OOo installed on their computers, is to use Standalone OOo reader. Can you check the feasibility of providing such a reader at earliest? Some of the desired features of this reader will be- (1) It should enable a user to VIEW, COMMENT and PRINT OOo files. (2) It should be a standalone reader i.e. a user should be able to use it without the need of complete OOoâs Installation. (3) If Possible there should be a single reader for all types of OOo files e.g. Writer, Calc, Presentation etc. (4) Same kind of ability to read Star Office files (Older or Newer formats). (5) Freely downloadable / distributable. (6) Size around 10 MB or so. (7) If technically feasible then - No Need for Installation. (8) Availability on all OSes, on Which OOo runs. (9) Plug in for popular web browsers. (10) It should support Access Rights Management for OOo files (See below for more details). Although OOo complete suit is freely available, but still there are many people, who donât want / or are not able to download/install the complete suit for various reasons. In this scenario OOo reader seems the best solution for easy file sharing. ------------------------------------------------------ (B) Better Access Rights management for OOo Files- (This Issue has already been reported by the same reporter, under Issue No. 41096. URL is http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=41096 and is being repeated, because it is directly related to the above discussed concept). Presently OOo documents can be password protected but there is no way to enforce document restrictions, similar to those offered by PDF files. Like - Document printing Content copying Comment writing Form filling Document signing etc. In other words, what other users can or cannot do with a document. MSO has also started offering this kind of functionality. Is it possible for OOo to move in this direction? ------------------------------------------------------ Everybody knows that It was Adobeâs *Reader*, which made their PDF format (and Acrobat) so popular. Even MS provides such readers for its office files. *Please Give a Serious thought to this suggestion* Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
