I've been in the habit of creating PDFs of .odt files using LibreOffice. Today somewhere, I was reminded of 'ps2pdf', which I'd never used before. The result is these 4 files :
-rw-r--r-- 1 purslow users 34475 Jan 12 07:52 boox.odt -rw-r--r-- 1 purslow users 366711 Jan 13 04:05 boox.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 purslow purslow 830909 Jan 13 04:07 boox.ps -rw-r--r-- 1 purslow purslow 67184 Jan 13 04:07 boox-test.pdf Both PDFs seem the same when opened with Xpdf or Okular, but the difference in sizes is striking : the PDF created with LO direct export is 5 times the size of the PDF created with a test run of Ps2pdf ; the .ps file created with LO & then used for the latter is even bigger. Can anyone explain what is going on ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
