Based on OpenOffice, but integrated into an Eclipse based framework, you can directly save to the Adobe portable document format (PDF). Officially supported in Red Hat and SuSE Linux distros. I have managed to install it under 64-bit Fedora 9, 64 & 32-bit Debian and Ubuntu 8.04, and 32 & 64-bit CentOS5.1 but the quality of the fonts vary under unsupported GNU/Linux distributions. Formal Ubuntu support is coming from IBM/Lotus in the near future --with a beta in August 2008. If you have an unsupported GNU/Linux distribution, you may want to review a few of my relevant web log how-to entries at Metztli IT's Web Log (< http://www.metztli-it.com/blog >) Regards, Jose R Rodriguez http://www.metztli-it.com -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
