Re: [tdf-discuss] Re: EPS images in ODF documents

Magnus ,

Your document contains EPS images with a lowres preview. OO or LO 
"shows" only this preview.The poor quality is due to the lowres (72x72) 
pixels per inch.

OO or LO can NOT show eps images.

Ok, so far the bad news, if you want to "see" hig quality in your LO doc 
, then you need to transfer the pictures to the OO-draw-vector format 
and copy from there to your Writzer Doc.

open your picture with Gview ( Opensource)
Convert in Gview to EPS, save.
Open the new saved EPS in OO-draw and copy the picture from draw into 
your Writer Document

When now making a PDF you will see that some parts of your picture (text 
and notations) have a "lower" quality than the original EPS output.

You can also following a other work flow, with no loss of quality.

Start opening your orginal pictures in Gview, export a to a pixel 
format, who has better results in your Writer Doc.

Insert this pixelformats as "linked" file in your writer doc.

Befor printing, change your "pixelformat_link" to the original 
"epsfile_link" ( can ealy been done with a macro when using some naming 
conventions)

Hope it helps a bit
