Re: [libreoffice-users] Pimaco extension for labels

Hi :)
Oops, ignore my last email about this!  

Someone at work suggested turning the label sheets the other way around in the 
printer as there is often a tiny difference in the measurements between 
top&bottom and left&right.  I tried measuring it with a ruler but the difference 
seems negligible but it seemed to make a difference!  


My guess is that a lot of those templates need a slight editing.  Last time i 
did labels i took the standard template and then modified it a bit for myself.  
Does the world label place allow uploads of improved designs or is there a place 
in LibreOffice wiki or somewhere that better templates could be stored?

Regards from
Tom :)

Um, that statement makes no sense.  Public domain documents require no license.  
They are either someone's copyright and licensed under the GPL or there's a quit 
claim on the copyright and no license applies.

Although either case would make them all right to bundle with LibreOffice, you 
still have to figure out which case you are assuming.  I would be concerned that 
whoever slapped that on there doesn't know what they are doing.  (I think it is 
odd to apply the GPL to a document, but it's not that surprising.)

PS: For fun, I dug inside one of these.  They were produced with OpenOffice.org 
2.0 near the end of 2005.  Remarkable.

Hi,

On the World Label site they have the following statement:
"These documents are XML Open Document Format (ODF), Public Domain, 
licensed under GPL. "
