[Solved] Exporting to PFF from Apache OpenOffice

Post by shaullent »

Hello,

Trying to export large docuement from apache open office as a PDF. Every time I try and do this, my open office shuts down and I have to retrieve this file. Is there a way to export my document as a PDF?

As a quick workaround you could try http://www.zamzar.com who offer a free online conversion from odt to pdf.

Thanks Rory. However, Ive tried zamzar a couple of times. Seems like its not converting properly. Is there another way to convert to a PDF?

Open your document. Click on File/Print. Click on the PDF icon, then click on Save as PDF.
