Hello Johnny What does it look like if you follow these steps: 1. Open "kopekontrakt_bilar.pdf" 2.Make some arbitrary changes just to make sure that the pdf plugin has done something. 3. Export the resulting Draw document to a PDF. 4. Open the resulting PDF in the PDF viewer of your choice. I did exactly the above four steps. I changed one word on the second page. Here is the resulting PDF: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/kopekontrakt_bilar2.pdf I agree that when your PDF (or any other that I have tried) is opened up using this plugin, that it looks really bad. In fact, "Format | Page | Page" shows the following information: Format: A4 Margins: Left: 1.18" Right: 0.39" Top: 0.63" Bottom: 0.39" This looked really bad. BUT, the resulting PDF seems to look perfect. The margins are certainly nothing like Draw reported them to be. Steven P. Ulrick P.S.: To all of those that are having issues with this plugin, here is some info about our system: Operating System: Fedora Linux 9 OpenOffice.org Version: DEV300_m33 Build-1 PDF Import Extension: 0.3.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
