Re: Fw: Re: [libreoffice-users] [PDF Import] LibreOffice extension for importing PDF documents -- pdfimport

MAS and Tom,

Thank you for the prompt replies. Tom, My apologies for inappropriately 
creating a new thread by using "Reply" method which caused the
inconvenience as well as extra toil. And addition thanks for the effort 
and educating me.

The SVG and PNG are fine for me, but the PDF is a part of the 
requirements (which are out of my control) I am working on at present.

Best regards,


Pae
