This can be a chance to convert a user to OpenOffice and free
standards.
I don't know where to ask this, but this seems to be a catch all group
for open standards, and free software so the advocates probably are
well versed in the answer. I'm a new user to OpenOffice and open
standards like pdf, having been a life long MS user. I tried googling,
but apparently I'm not typing the correct search phrase. So here is my
question:
When I add a jpeg image to openoffice file and save it as a pdf, the
image doesn't look right when viewed as pdf. It seems to lose a lot of
its resolution. I've seen documents created in pdf with images that
don't look bad at no matter how much you zoom in on them. I want to do
that with my documents with images. Even if that is not possible I
would like at _least_ for the image to be at actual size when viewed
and not degraded like it is now in pdf.
I would like a step by step example if possible. I am using OpenOffice
on Windows since I'm not done learning to use (GNU?)/Linux for all my
tasks yet.
If not, I'll have to go back to using Microsoft Word as the format as
it keeps its resolution. I just want more people to be able to read my
documents.
Thank you.
