[users] Calc recovery turns function names into literal strings

When I have a Calc spreadsheet open and there is an abnormal termination, OpenOffice brings up the recovery dialog when I reopen the document. In my document I have some user-defined functions.

There are all manner of scripts!  So, without knowing your programming language, I suggest referencing the PDF function on the FILE menu in your script as you would any other command.  I'm supposing that "page 2" only would be an attribute. Suzanne L. Perry --- On Sun, 3/15/09, Jean Hollis W

Re: [users] Export page 2 of an ODT file to PDF

Hi Dotan,   When you click on the FILE menu, then click on EXPORT AS PDF, the PDF Export Dialog Box opens. The first option on the first (left most) tab requests RANGE.  You have the option of ALL pages, or just the pages you specify.   Hope this helps.  Suzanne L. Perry --- On Sun, 3/15/09

I have been googling this all day. On Kubuntu 8.04 with OOo 3.0 I need to (for example) export the second page of "file.odt" to "page2.pdf". I have googled macros, crazy scripts that don't work, etc and I think that I am getting frustrated. Does anybody have any idea how to do this in a sane manner
