Re: [libreoffice-users] Images and *doc export

Hi :)
How about side-stepping the issue and use
File - "Export to Pdf"

Does the supervisor need to edit the document?  If so it's a non-starter but generally Pdfs are 
viewed as being more professional.  Everyone sees Pdfs the same, the layout is the same and 
everything.  Errr, fonts sometimes not quite identical unless you print to file and then select Pdf 
instead of Ps.  I think.  Anyway Pdf generally gets around that sort of issue.  Also LibreOffice 
has more options for exporting as Pdf, such as doing uncompressed ones for better quality.  

Word is really bad with graphics and doesn't have the range of "Anchor to page" and so on that LO 
has.  Also it kinda falls over if it has too many graphics.  

Jpg can mess up images a little by making them be a bit swirly but usually it's tolerable.  Png 
tends to be a better format.  However by creating a Pdf you might even impress your supervisor.  

Regards from
Tom :)
