Hi Thibault Vataire,
Thanks. I think this seem like it should work. It was suggested by cor nouws
too.
The problem with these filter fields or other properties is that i can't seem
to find any documentation as to what strings it accepts.
Thanks again

Hi,
To open you document programmatically, you can do that :
sub main
dim xComp as object
dim args(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args(0).name = "FilterName"
args(0).value = "draw_pdf_import"
xComp =
starDesktop.loadComponentFromUrl(convertToUrl("/home/tvataire/Bureau/resultat.pdf"),
"_blank", com.sun.star.frame.FrameSearchFlag.CREATE, args)
end sub
This works on a pdf document previously created with Writer.
I'm working with OOo 3.2 on Ubuntu.

Thibault Vataire

Hi,
Can anyone help me on this? Is there a way to force a document to open with
draw programmatically?

Subject: [api-dev] pdf import programmatically
Hi all,
I am trying import pdf files to edit. I've installed the sun pdf import with
openoffice 3.1. Pdf files seem to open fine in draw when i open it from the
desktop.
However, when i use the loadComponentFromURL method, it opens the file with writer and encoded text
appears. I've also tried passing in "MediaType" in the mediadescriptor with the value of
"simpress8" but it doesn't work.
How can i programmatically force it to open with draw and return a XComponent
object?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Wei Min
The documentation for a filter should be available as a specification,
or possibly in the Developers' Guide, but these are not always easy to
find; they may not exist.
However, if you can successfully open a particular type of file by hand,
through the GUI, then you can find those specific settings easily: look
in the file! :-)
There are tools - the BASIC IDE is one - for inspecting an open file. If
I recall correctly, you need to find the Media Descriptor. It will have
the parameter names and value strings, including the filter name,
formatted exactly as you should use them.
