.xps-files and OpenOffice on Linux-Machines

Post by ChristophARhein »

There is still no handling with the f*- .xps-files for Linux. The new XML-Paper-Specification by MS is quite a problem for all Linux-User. You have the alternative to use Wine and the XPSViewer by Microsoft or to install Adobe Acrobat Professional on a Windows-machine and convert the file to PDF. And Microsoft is breaking again promises. The Novell-Microsoft-Deal is now quitted by MS. And the EU is still looking how MS creates a monopol.
Can someone create a handle for Linux-User because GhostXPS and GhostPDL are only available as source-code and the building results in no usefull binaries?

Sorry, I'm afraid I don't understand your question--or at least I don't understand how it relates to OOo.

I also don't know what you mean by "handle" in this context.

This forum provides volunteer support for people using OOo. If you have a request for a new feature, you'll have to do that through the OOo QA page: Open Office Quality Assurance - Report Bugs.
