Hello,
In documents converted by exporting to pdf from writer, in all
pdf viewers (especially Adobe Reader, but xpdf, kpdf, evince too)
some pages appear slowly - line by line. These pages are tables of
contents with different styles for different outline levels. And in
original pdf's (my one is a translation) all lines are displayed almost
at once.
I'm using OO 2.0.1-5 on Debian. Don't think it's OS or ghostscript
problem.
(I've tried extendPDF macro http://www.3bview.com/epdf-home.html -
the pages are good ...but all the cross-references are lost).
Is there a way to "tune" OO pdf converter?
Another thing I need is bookmarks to be shown on opening, and expanded
only to level 2 instead of level five.
Can upgrading to 2.0.2 or 2.0.3 RC solve the problem?
Have you tried this by using the PDF Converter "printer" to generate the
PDF files instead of using the PDF Export function?
The former can be set up by using the spadmin program, the location of
which may vary by distro. On my FC5 system it is:
/usr/lib/openoffice.org2.0/program/spadmin
Someone will correct me certainly, but I don't believe that the PDF
Export function uses ghostscript, since it works whether GS is installed
or not (ie. the default on most Windows systems). There are also
different behaviors with the two PDF generating mechanisms, which have
been covered here recently (specifically with respect to embedded EPS
files).
The PDF Converter printer essentially creates a Distiller like driver by
using a GS command line containing "-sDEVICE=pdfwrite". This is
essentially the same configuration as ps2pdf, which you could use if you
generate a PS file from Writer using a PS printer driver and then use
ps2pdf to convert to PDF. Using the PDF Converter does this in a single
step within Writer.
I would try that to see if you get any different behavior in your
resultant PDF files. If so, it may indicate a problem with the default
PDF Export function, which you might want to file a bug report against.
If not, you might want to see if you can provide a sample document that
exhibits the problems (without compromising confidential information) to
see if others can replicate your experience.
