Re: [libreoffice-users] How to import PDF file?

LOSING JUSTIFY


      With at least one example, I lost "justify" with opening a PDF in 
LibreOffice Draw.  The original PDF was in two columns with each 
justified.  In Draw, it was left aligned, and some of the lines in the 
left column overlapped the right.


      I got this using "Print/export" > "Download as PDF" from 
"Effective defense and ISIL" in Wikiversity 
(https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Effective_defense_and_ISIL) with 
LibreOffice 5.0.3.2 and 5.0.4.2 just now.


FORCE READING IN WRITER?


      Is there a way to force LO to open it in Writer?


      Alternatively, is there other software (preferably free and 
open-source) that can read the text (and numbers) and make them 
available to Writer or Calc that's easier than copying and pasting from 
Draw?


      The text in Draw is all single lines, which makes it inconvenient 
to work from.


      Thanks,
      Spencer Graves
