first article on LibreOffice/OpenOffice little known features is
online
Greetings,
you may remind that a couple months ago I had asked your opinion on what
are the least known features of the free office suites. That project was a
bit delayed, but in case you missed it, the first article is now finally
online at:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/opensource/seven-great-features-of-openoffice-and-libre-office-that-you-probably-ignore/4372?tag=mantle_skin;content
you're obviously very welcome to join the discussion at TechRepublic and
to provide even more tips for future articles.
Thanks again for your input,
Marco Fioretti

Thanks for this article there are a few topics that I learned today.
With regard to import FrameMaker files there never was a tool to import
native FrameMaker format,
but you could save FrameMaker documents in FrameMaker Interchange Format
(MIF).
StarOffice 5.1 which I still have installed on a VM was able to import
mif documents.
Unfortunately Sun and OpenOffice have discontinued this import filter in
later versions.
It would be a great help if this is made available again either as part
of OpenOffice or as an Extension.

Interesting article. If you have time, you could consider helping with
the OpenOffice Release Notes!
A couple of suggested improvements:
In #2, there's a wrong link to
http://www.openoffice.org/documentation/manuals/oooauthors/MathObjects.pdf
(the final "f" is missing).
In #6, it would be better to specify that OpenOffice relies on the PDF
Import Extension for the task:
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/pdfimport
Regards,
Andrea.
