Re: [libreoffice-users] PDF Importer Problems

Thanks Robert, Xournal does the job.

I ignored it because the notes say it's for handwritten annotations, but 
it does have a text input also


I'm copying to the list also- you sent your reply direct to me. To reply 
to the list, you need to click "Reply to list" on your email program.

Keith -

Are you still looking for a workaround? Have you tried the PDF 
annotation function in Xournal? I use it under Debian so I assume it's 
available under Ubuntu.

In the past it was straight forward to scan the music to a pdf

few times I have tried to do this the document just opens as a series 
of blank pages. I know the pdf is OK because other pdf viewers show it.


I did use pdfEdit to fill the gap but this can no longer be used in 
Ubnuntu 12.10


Does anyone know how to resolve this? I could go back to using 
stickers with the required text, but using LO to add the text prior 
to printing is much simpler when it works.

Hi Keith,

I'm sorry. I misunderstood. Thank you for correcting me.

Don,

My problem is somewhat different, I think, as I have no problem 
viewing or printing pdfs, even the ones I have created myself. It's 
just the LO extension doesn't show the content on the screen- all

assessment information, etc. To print a deed that has been selected, 
I can view it in Chrome or Firefox like I always did. The individual 
deed pages are stored as tiff images on their server. If I wanted a 
copy of it, I would just print it as a pdf. I would use cups-pdf. 
Cups would show it fetching each image, but in the final document, 
all of the pages are blank in Ubuntu 12.10. I tried it on a machine 
with Ubuntu 12.04, and everything printed fine. On 12.10 I then tried 
printing a hard copy with the regular printer instead of a pdf . Once 
again it showed it was fetching each page, but the printer printed 
out blank pages. So this is an issue with Ubuntu 12.10 in some 
manner. I filed a bug report with Ubuntu here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1066932

Nothing has happened since then. There have been no additions to my 
bug report. Maybe it would be helpful if you added your problem there.
