------- Additional comments from hennerdre...@openoffice.org Sun Nov 29 12:51:06 +0000 2009 ------- It is possible to embed EMF data into WMF files. This technique is able to circumvent the WMF format limitations in certain scenarios. Impact of this patch: Some third-party OLE servers provide higher quality representation data in EMF format than in WMF format. The OLE handlers usually provide the representation data in WMF format, but embed the superior EMF data in the WMF stream. When displaying an OLE object with OleDraw() or IViewObject functions, the EMF data is used. OOO, however, accesses the data streams directly and can only display the limited WMF representation (missing unicode characters, bezier curves) The patch enables to read the EMF data, if available, and thus improves the display quality of certain OLE objects. The patch also includes an enhancement to embed EMF data when exporting to WMF. I am not sure, though, if this has a benefit in practical use. Some tests indicate, that this embedded EMF data is not used, when OOO acts as a OLE server. This can be achieved in a different way, but that should be a different issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
