I guess that Sun wants to avoid license conflicts with Adobe. Also I never have seen the OOo-PDF extension, it won't turn OOo into a real PDF editor. It IS an inport/export solution. I suspect something like the solution in the recent build of Inkscape.

Users then won't see a difference to a built-in filter. The advantage of extensions is that users can choose if they want it or not. OOo was often critized to be bloated. So we offer new functionality as an extension if it is not obvious that everybody wants to have it and if it is technically possible. IMHO both preconditions are met in the pdf import filter. In case you don't know it: extensions are installed by an admin and for all users by using unopkg add --shared name_of_extension.oxt. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

This plugin to me should be included in the main build. I'm very nervous about adding and using extensions in general. Once you deploy something to users, you cannot ever roll it back or people get upset. The problem with this being extension is that if a newer version of OOo comes out and fails to be tested or fails in the future, I'm going to have some angry users. Once deployed it will become a part of normal workflow for them. Extensions to me are little addons from users to aid in the use of OOo, and should not be used for major features. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

This is not possible in Writer as a continuous text flow is in contradiction to layout preservation. Writer would be the right choice for the use case that only the content but not the layout of the PDF is important and that the content should become editable flow text. IMHO this can be achieved by providing an import filter odf-Writer and this still would be my suggestion for the next step. I know that others think that they can tweak the PDF import in Writer directly to get slightly better layout stability but IMHO this is much effort for a still not perfect solution, a bad cost-benefit ratio. OTOH an odg/odp import for Writer would give us a more useful capabilities, e.g. ppt import and the like. But these considerations should be done in a new issue. This one is too old and too long already. It's hard to keep the overview and it would be better to start anew with fresh minds and fresh ideas. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Considering that there are currently some serious troubles with inserting Draw objects in Writer documents and the fact that most pdf's are actually textual information, this is rather very limiting.

The first version of the filter is integrated and I assume that further enhancements or bug fixes will be done with new issues. At the moment it's unclear if and when we will have resources to implement an import into *Writer* and how this should be done. The simplest approach would be to let Writer import odg files - that would be nice not only for pdf import. OTOH I was told that a direct import into Writer could create a slightly better quality. The question remains if the effort to implement that is judged by that. Perhaps closing this issue and waiting for further feedback could help. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

So let's wait for the beta. @discoleo: I don't deny that import into Writer could be useful, I just don't think that all users asking for the filter and voting here think the same. So by closing this issue and waiting for new input we can get a better estimation how strong this requirement is. BTW: I didn't suggest to *insert* drawing documents into Writer, I wanted to suggest that Writer directly creates a text document from the odg file. This could be an alternative and much cheaper solution. And it has the additional advantage that we can get a text import into Writer for all drawing or impress documents, including ppt files. Especially the latter was already required here and there. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Having said that though, an import into Writer would certainly be nice, but I always assumed that it would produce a less than perfect result (as some PDF elements may not be able to be reproduced exactly in Writer), so for minor alterations to PDFs the import into Draw suits me best, as hopefully it can produce an identical looking PDF at the other end. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

We will have PDF import in 3.0, but as we wanted to weigh layout stability higher than post editing capabilities in the first version we decided to import the PDF as drawing documents containing text frames. I'm sure that this is enough already for most of the users requiring PDF import. Reading the comments in this issue strongly supports this, only a few scenarios mentioned here will not be supported by our solution. So I opt for closing this issue as fixed once the PDF import is available and then create a new issue for importing/converting the imported Draw file into Writer. This will show us how high the demand for this might be - the high number of votes we have in this issue surely is caused by the complete absence of any PDF import. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Moreover, many viewpoints are already filed here and do not need to be rediscovered. As for the issue itself, i understand that what can be done at time of 3.0 and what was already decided is that PDF will be imported as drawing documents containing text frames. Until this is completed in version 3.0 there is no further need to debate further future of this function. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10384 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jan 25 13:42:32 + 2008 --- The A, B, C cases are forgetting the situation where one wants to use PDF as a simple read-only vector graphics format, like one does with pdfLaTeX (unless this is incorporated in case B). Cases A, B and C add many complications to this (rather simple) goal due to the need to extract at least some elementary layout information. Hence, in my opinion, trying to satisfy the goals of A, B, and C, has the rather high price of keeping on postponing the much more simplistic usage of PDF import above. At first sight the functionality might appear unnecessary. The very PDF-Import wiki, for instance says: For now we uses a workaround making from the PDF-page a EPS with tiff-preview who can now be placed in a OO-doc. The previeuw is low-resolution but the EPS is printed in its original resolution seeming to suggest that for now this is more than acceptable. In my opinion it is not, for a few reasons: 1) It is not true that the EPS is printed in its original resolution. At least not always. If you try to print it on virtual paper via an export to PDF - distribution as a PDF - print from acrobat reader or xpd, you will see that the eps image gets in the exported PDF as a low resolution bitmap. Too sad. 2) If you want to import a PDF image with no desire to edit it, but just to use it in a presentation (impress) then you get an extremely poor presentation. 3) A very easy way to get a hi-quality equation editor in openoffice would be to use LaTeX as a formatting engine, to produce pdf versions of the formulas. But this is not possible now since we have no idea at how to import the resulting PDF. And so the creation of smart packages like eqe or OOoLaTeX is hindered by the fact that they need to produce bitmaps or at best emf files (that have a thousand font-related problems, since they do not embed neither fonts nor encodings). 4) A very easy way to get a hi-quality image generator in openoffice would be to use Asymptote as a code-2-image translator. However asymptote outputs pdf, so we have the same problem as above (just worsened since Asy cannot output emf). So please, even before thinking at A, B and C, give us a plain hi-quality readonly importer for PDF graphics (e.g. store PDF in the opendocument files, render it on screen via xpdf, translate it into postscript for printing via xpdf again). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To better understand what should be developed, I will address these use cases: A.) TEXT-IMPORT B.) TEXT+LAYOUT IMPORT (non-editable) C.) TEXT+LAYOUT (editable) A.) TEXT-IMPORT === Sometimes, people want to import the text-stream to edit it in their preferred program and use it in their own work. In these instances, the exact layout is not that important, and what the import filter should do is: - generate a continuous text stream [i.e. NOT just every line terminated by CR/LF, like the current Adobe Acrobat select tool] - optimally detect some text-structure: -- like sub-/super-script -- paragraphs -- tables B.) TEXT+LAYOUT === Users need sometimes to complete a document/form. Often, governments and other institutions publish official documents in pdf-format (simple PDFs, NOT pdf-forms), BUT one cannot add any text to these pdf documents. The import-filter should therefore: - import the pdf (both text-streams and layout) as a background - users shall be able to write in the foreground, over the background document [however, this should be handled better than pasting the pdf-document as an image and writing over an image] -- it should be possible to position the cursor on the baseline of a text-line, so that newly written text fits the existing text -- the tool should detect existing text-box boundaries, so that one can write new text extending from those boundaries - optimally, some minimal 'pdf-editing' features should be possible -- move whole sections, e.g. if the new text does NOT fit in the existing free space, move the whole section downwards C.) TEXT+LAYOUT (fully editable) === Of course, this would be a nice feature, BUT - considering the pdf format -, seems a little bit elusive. However, pdf-documents saved by OOo should contain additional information, that should allow importing them in OOo in a fully editable state. At least OOo-generated documents shall allow this editing mode. CONCLUSIONS === There is a new wiki page documenting progress: see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Writer/ToDo/PDF_Import I think, further comments should go to the wiki-page.

I am very disappointed of the Acrobat copy/paste mechanism. There are some critical problems, at least in Acrobat 7: - every individual line is exported with a CR/LF at the line end -- therefore, paragraphs are broken in individual lines and one cannot import a whole text stream -- with a 100+ line document, this is NO longer a trivial task [exporting as txt + gawk processing removes every formatting] - various formattings, like sub-/super-script and underline don't work at all - lists (maybe more difficult to implement) - other layout issues (paragraphs/tables) need significant improvement - import graphical elements, too -- e.g. images between text-streams (both graphic + text stream) -- while, of course the text stream is more important, there are often situations, where one needs the images, too, and here Acrobat fails completely - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

MS Office can import PDF and Microsoft and Adobe are two separately companies. Besides if pdf is being imported (therefor converted into open document format), it isn't a pdf anymore. When you're modyfing imported pdf's they are no longer pdf's! In pdf's are restrictions from the person who has written the pdf files, if those restrictions are being followed, then there is no problem. I strongly agree with peetje berg, looking of pdf's sounds a job for Adobe Reader. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I think that the issue with PDF's in OpenOffice has been made complicated by the technical aspects... I think what end-users only want is to be able to read/view PDF's with a program associated with OpenOffice - I guess that would suffice. From the previous comments, it seems to me that integrating a program to view/edit PDF's is not congruent with how OO was written, coming from a programmers perspective. I guess that means there is a problem with having an interoperability between the proposed PDF viewer/editor and Writer, for example, in a way similar to the interoperability of Writer and Impress. I mentioned above that association is the only need... to put it simply, imagine renaming Adobe Acrobat Reader into something like OpenOffice Portable and include it in the download and installation of OpenOffice, to be used as an application within the suite to view/annotate/highlight/whatever (as opposed to editing) PDF's, but not necessarily written to interoperate with like Writer, Impress, and Draw do. If I understood it correctly, what is feasible is being able to import/convert PDF's into Writer editable format (odt, doc, etc..). That's when the interoperability would come in - when a user wants to edit/modify (different from simply making highlights, comments, etc...) the PDF document. But as far as Adobe Acrobat Reader functionality is concerned, I do not see how it would be impossible for developers to create an application that is associated with OpenOffice that would allow users to view/annotate PDF's like how they do with Adobe, Foxit, etc... Am I coming across? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

But that would be overly complex. Indeed, what many of the commenters seem to ignore is the fundamental difference between a page description language (PDF) which lacks all of the structural information and a word processing document. What is however realistic is using PDFs as *graphics*. This is a common practice in the (pdf)LaTeX world. Apparently (I'm basing this on a comment on the scribus bug tracker), PDF starting at version 1.4 allows for such a placement of PDFs in a PDF. This would be useful in at least the following two ways: * use PDF as a very complete and universally compatible (but non-modifiable) vector graphics format. (It can easily be generated by any program and then cropped to the right dimensions) * use full page PDFs as background and modify the contents by overpainting or adding comments, drawings, etc. (Of course, this would probably entail the inclusion of a pdf rendering library for printing and displaying.) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

We plan to support several other formats as well. This is planned as a major new feature of our financial data reporting service, with significant revenue implications. I need to complete a working PHP-based application to do this within a week. I had thought that OOo already supported this, so I'm already committed to finding a solution. I had planned to use OOo in headless mode, calling it from a PHP script. I've tried pdftohtml, but my build seems to be broken, at least so far - it publishes essentially empty HTML pages. pdftk slices and dices PDF but doesn't output anything else. pdf2ps and similar programs seem only to produce images of the pdf file, not at all what I need. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Here you can find some interesting link for programs that manage .PDF files (sorry, comments are Italian language only): http://linguistico.sf.net/wiki/doku.php?id=software_libero:documenti_formati#visualizzatori_convertitori_documenti_pdf Else you can use Abiword or Kword (I don't remember who) that can convert a .PDF and let you modify it.

What is sorely needed is the ability to import a xx.pdf document (into OOo Writer) so that the information (text, graphics, formats) may be written/saved/edited as an OOo document (not PDF). . . . . .The Portable Document Format is NOT as portable as one may believe. The worst event a writer can run into in a search is to get/hit-on information in PDF format. What happens here is that one can only immediately read or save (in PDF since export is limited) the document. This format is bloated, restrictive, a thought interruption, portable only between OS file systems, not usable (portable) in word-processing programs generally and then only if one has the necessary escape to a proprietary image editor/reader. The format was never intended to: . . . . .The single most portable format now is/has been, TEXT ! During the APRAnet days the DOD needed let a contract to then developed the spec to out of came ... so that documents could be transmitted to other event sites so that information could be distributed in real time to needed national defense agencies for Let there be a PDF. Who owns the format specified by, purchased and developed by the American Taxpayer ??? Modern day computers and OS's are so standard and open (except for a few hang in's) that, the best that, could happen is for the unnecessary format to just go away and disappear ... PDF quietly just go away. Develope better Open Systems Format (OSF), text Word Processing Systems that can handle text intermixed with graphics. Hello OOo good-bye PDF :).

The resulting layouts have really nothing to do with the source PDF. This is due to the differences of word processors and page description languages (PDF, postscript). Please do not expect the functionality of a PDF editor!!! So in my opinion it is wasted time to implement such a feature. The only thing it could be used for is to have pictures and text extracted of PDFs for usage in Writer documents. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

This feature absolutely would be wonderful. I'm requesting that in the short term, that OOo not allow people to even view the source code of the PDF. The OS knows what the file is and should just skip the import process altogether. We get a high number of support calls from users that open PDFs with OOo, only to see what appears to be garbage to them. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
