[libreoffice-users] LO Basic: problem retrieving document Keywords property
For billing purposes I store parameters into the Description fields of LO text document properties. Have no problems retrieving data entered in the Title, Subject, Description property fields by simply assigning the data to string variables. However, when I try to assign to a string variable the contents of the Keywords property, I get the error message depicted in the following code screenshot: http://tinypic.com/m/imus2c/4 Can anyone help me figure out what the problem might be?

All of the different models and/or companies have PDF vs. Postscript [levels 1 - 3] as a driver based printing option. Well, printing using the Postscript printing [I default to level 3] always seem to work petter than using the PDF print "driver" option. Sometimes it solves other issues with printing besides print quality. I have seen some issues in the past for the the option not being saved in the LO printer options, but I have not looked into that issue for many versions. Still, I would look into which printer option works best for your printer and set that as you default. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-users] Printing options.
@Steve, That is an interface to System printer settings. And, if you are using it for "printing" to a PDF processor--you are printing as PS (Adobe or Ghostscript based). But internal to LO, an Export to PDF will use different processing filters than printing to PS--so there can be subtle differences between the two resulting PDFs.

Hi. In File> Printer Settings, under options is the device printer language setting (PDF/Postscript). Is this a Libreoffice configuration or a system configuration. I ask because some documents print fine with postscript but not with PDF. If it is a LO function I will file a bug.

Indeed, I belive this is the cause of my problem. I decide to setup hyperlink color in the middle of work with this prezentation. So I get the problem that that this setup isn't consistent throughout all slides of this presentation. On 3 or 4 slides have I this problem only. I think I must to create new slide instead of these and copy-paste text on to new slides, where I can then get the colors of hyperlinks as I wish. Right? - Best Regards from Pál -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Unless it's a bug in these later editions, this is one of the settings you can choose before starting the PP - should be consistent throughout unless you decide to make a change at some point for some particular aspect.

I am not quite sure if it is an LO problem or a problem with the OpenSuse packaging and I haven't (yet) the need to start experimenting.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Report in Base not executed
Hi :) Nicely done! :) Errr, have you been able to temporarily work-around by going back to an older version of LibreOffice or have you had a chance to test-drive a newer version, maybe as a parallel install? I dunno if that might help but it might be worth a try!
