New labels format

[Info Agipa <in...@apli-agipa.com>]

Hello.

I'm working for a labels manufaturer and I would like to add our format in openoffice.
We have customers who have asked for it in the past.

How is the best way to perform this ?

I found in the past that all informations are in a xml file (don't remember where now).
There is a description of this file to give the good informations ?

Thanks in advance.

You can write an extension. You don't need to know any programming
language, it's simply xml. See
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non-code_extensions

The format is described in the schema:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/ooo/trunk/main/officecfg/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office/Labels.xcs?revision=1225983&view=markup

you can find an example here:

Hello.

I've found the file labels.xcu which contains labels descriptions.
I think I can prepare a file with our products.
But how to include it in the trunk ?
Can I send it to someone for merging with actual file ?

Thanks.

I would create a template extension package including templates for
these labels. This extension can be easy deployed and you can upload it
in the extension repository
