[Solved] How to Open PDF file in OpenOffice?

[david4561]

I dumped my 7 HP Pavilion after the mother board failed. Bought a MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite, and transferred all my data files to the Mac from the old HP hard drive. I have used open Office for many years, so I have a lot of Open office files. All of my .odp & .pps presentations that I had done on my HP in Open Office run okay on the new Mac. The problem I'm having is the .doc and .txt files run on Mac 'Pages' and Open Office, but .pdf and .wps(Microsoft Word) files will not. What do I use to open the .pdf files, and what can I use to convert .wps files to .doc files or to make them workable as a .wps file.
When I try to run these files I get a pop -up "ASCCI Filter Options" Which means nothing to me.... Help.

Do not use OpenOffice to open PDF files. There should be a default PDF reader on the Mac, but not being a Mac user I don't know what it is called.

firstly Search for "Oracle PDF Import Extension", and click on it. Choose the system suitable for your computer. After you download the PDF extension for OpenOffice, select "Open" from the "File" menu and locate the PDF file that you want to edit and open. After you have opened the PDF, you can now edit the PDF file.

Best not to use that method if serious (i.e., non cosmetic) editing is required. Better to use a proper PDF editor.

The LibreOffice has PDF import feature by default. The PDF files will be opened in the Draw application, and you can make some small corrections only. It is not a full PDF editor feature.
