Edit: Split from OpenOffice 3.2 core dumped while converting .doc to .pdf because that topic that eleven year old topic is for OpenOffice 3.2. Please do not post in another's topic unless you are helping to solve their problem for them. I created a new topic for you to discuss OpenOffice 4.1.14. -- MrProgrammer, forum moderator

I'm getting the same error in OpenOffice 4.1.14. Could anyone tell, me how to resolve this?

You may have better luck with LibreOffice.
OOo 3.2 is really deprecated now.

I'm using OpenOffice 4.1.14. Is it also deprecated @Hagar Delest?

LibreOffice is a long way ahead of OpenOffice in terms of development. You could do worse than try it.

By the way, can we do odt to png conversion using OpenOffice? I didn't find this in the official documentation.

No, see viewtopic.php?f=7&t=89555 which will tell you that LibreOffice can. For example, using the version of LO in my sig and as JPG because PNG is too big to upload here and I can't be bothered to resize it:

No but I hadn't noticed that you had revived a 11 years old discussion! I was replying to the OP in fact.

Thanks for the information. In the OpenOffice SDK java examples, there is a file "DocumentConvertor.java" and it says this " The class <CODE>DocumentConverter</CODE> allows you to convert all documents in a given directory and in its subdirectories to a given type. A converted
document will be created in the same directory as the origin document."

I'm running that file and trying to convert an ODT file to a PNG file. Can't we do that way also? It's working fine for PDF conversion but not for PNG conversion.


So, as per this viewtopic.php?f=7&t=89555 and conversion we had, can I assume, that we can't convert an odt file to PNG file?

Hallo

Hello!

I'm using OpenOffice SDk 4.1.14. odt to png conversion is giving error to me-
I used following command :-

soffice --convert-to png /home/madhu/Desktop/madhu.odt

The error message is: Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The error message is: Segmentation fault (core dumped)

So…try Libreoffice from your friendly Ubuntu-distribution…

Yeah, it's working with LibreOffice, But I wanted to know, if can I do the odt to png conversion using OpenOffice?

OK, So as per the attached post I assume, that we can't convert an odt file to a PNG file using OpenOffice 4.1.14 (that is the latest version of OpenOffice)

why do you insist on doing it with AOO?

https://www.zamzar.com offer many free online conversions. I have not checked for .odt to .png, but it might be worth doing so.

Note that my answer relates to using the File | Export feature of Open/LibreOffice to export as images; I make no claims about command line, Java or other methods.

Thanks for your response. I require official authentic information if OpenOffice SDK has ANY to PNG conversion supported as the application doesn’t (attached screenshot), nor development hints.[/img]
