I have an OSSWatch ODT file to be used as a template to use for our
OOo
output plugin. Can I get appropriate permissions to use the contents
of
this file ?
Where did you put this file? I'm not able to find it.
$ find . -name "*.odt"
only gives:
./whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.odt
./whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.odt/src/

Hi Sjur,
The 'contents' of the template which was approved I have used are the
background image and styles which make up the final look and feel of
the
output odt file. So all this is in the odt output resources
directories and
is brought in to use with the xdoc-to-odt.xsl.
Ok.
I hoped it would be possible to override the styles and template by
just adding a properly named odt template file in my project tree,
but
this is not the way it works, no?
No, not currently, that would be nice to do and I can think of
various ways
in which we can move forward along that goal.
:)

Like I say, happy to work with you on it as I know the current
implementation is restrictive, but I'm on an agenda. So if you can
take the
lead on it I'll jump in where I can.
Sorry, it was a one-time use-case, which was more easily solved in
other ways. Which means that I have no direct use for it anymore, and
I'm short of time (as most people, admittedly). But your notes are
important for future work, if somebody would like to pick up the thread.
Thanks for your effort in the thorough reply:)
Best regards,
Sjur
