problem with PDF
I am using OpenOffice 4.0.1 on my Macbook Air with Mavericks OS.
I am unable to open a PDF file.
When I attempt to open with Open Office the ASCII Filter Option: Western Europe (DOS/OS2-437/US) I am not presented with PDF.

Open the PDF with Preview, the built in PDF viewer.

OpenOffice doesn't open PDF, there is a PDF import extension you can
install.

The Extensions website is under control of the OpenOffice project.
But anyone can register and post an extension. So each extension is
maintained by the person who uploads it.
The fist disclaimer is related to the extension. The second is related
to the website. As Ariel is a well-known developer in the OpenOffice
project, he made it clear that the extension is maintained by him as an
individual and not as an OpenOffice developer.
Regards,
Andrea.

It does seem simple when put that way, Rory; however, this page has
OpenOffice associated logos, a modified OpenOffice domain name, etc
indicating it is part of the OpenOffice yet the wordage is "This project
is not affiliated with, (n)or endorsed by, the Apache Software
Foundation nor the Apache OpenOffice project in any way" The question
remains, if the disclaimer is true, why is it on a page indicating it is
part of the Apache OpenOffice project.
I am very cautious about downloading and do appreciate your help. I
prefer to get clarification before downloading, my expertise does not
include removing unwanted stuff from my system.

Simple enough: The ownership of the logos and trademarks is defined (First paragraph and last paragraph). Second paragraph means there is no guarantee if the extension eats you or your computer.

I also wonder what is the use of the embeded hybrid PDF/A (with ODF).
So having an ODF-inserted in the PDF.

How are these currently behaving and how to use them?

How nice here is an extension to help minor edits to pdf files. When I
went to download it, I saw the following Disclaimers which is
confusing. If someone has a moment, would they please help clarify the
Disclaimer wordage vs the wordage at bottom of the page . . . Many
thanks in advance.

OpenOffice does not normally open PDF files. To do so, and to be able to undertake a small amount of editing, one must install an extension
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/node/17351
If your intention is to view the PDF file, or to do major editing, then OpenOffice may not be the correct application.
