------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Dec 5 07:23:39 -0800 2006 ------- (Preamble: This not only concerns Writer but also Draw etc. But I simply did not know which of the "Components" offered by the selection table would fit best. The problem is related to program/libips680ss.so.) Unlike earlier versions, StarOffice 8 PU 4 (corresponding to OO 2.0.4) shows real previews of imported EPS figures in the document. However, there are the following problems. In Solaris 8 and 9, the program hang whenever a document containing an EPS figure was opened or when a new EPS figure was to be imported into an open document. Using ps and ptree, I found there was a pstoedit process active then, with options -f emf, but our pstoedit was compiled without emf support. Putting a symlink pstoedit -> /usr/bin/true into <SO8DIR>/program/ solved the issue, apparently using convert (from ImageMagick) then. Using truss, I found that soffice tries pstoedit, convert, and gs. After disabling convert (which also calls gs internally), gs was used directly, but the vertical scaling of the figure was too small then. Likewise, after compiling pstoedit with emf support and removing the mentioned symlink, the preview worked also, but again with the wrong vertical scaling. From experimenting with pstoedit, I conjecture that using options -f emf:-OO would help, but -f emf is hard-coded into program/libips680ss.so. Please solve these scaling issues and warn the user on installation that a pstoedit without emf support will cause trouble. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
