Hi :) I am sorry but my plan to just attach various documents from work after using "Save As .. " to get them into rtf format hit a slight snag. Most of the documents ended up being larger because the hidden codes and stuff didn't get removed. I tried creating a new document as an rtf but it still ended up having extra characters that rtf doesn't need and the odt was about 10 times smaller! The odt was 71.4Kb and the Rtf was 611Kb!
Sorry chap!

(LibO got closer with the recent rework, but it's still not > 100%.) Wow, nice Miklos. Its not everyday that a developer comes up and shares his work with us users. It would be nice if you would blog about it sometimes, maybe tag it so somebody like me who doesn't have any programming knowledge (and doesn't want to) can come and see what progress is being made in that. On the other side, what would you say would be a good strategy to push other text-editors to use the spec. or come close to it. What they need to look at, I can atleast ask in abiword, gedit and other open-source text-editors even if its just as a wishlist bug. Would need that info. Lastly, I have just subscribed to the nomail version of the list. While the traffic is not much now, in the coming days I do feel its going to be big and I don't want to be distracted by other discussions. As already said not a programmer so many things which would be discussed may be those as well as other wishlist stuff. Anyways, looking forward to knowing more from you. Thank you for your time. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
