    E-Porto Add-In für OpenOffice Writer

    QA is in contact with Deutsche Post since October 2012 hoping to reach some collaboration to improve that extension. -- Rainer Bielefeld 06:48, 6 December 2012 (UTC) Things became worse with E-Porto Version 1.0.2, more crashes! -- Rainer Bielefeld 2013-03-20T16:43:44 (UTC)


    PixCompress

    • Quick test results:
      • With LibO "LOdev 4.0.0.0.alpha1+ - ENGLISH UI / German Locale [Build ID:ac4d26e3fc2728ee80f33a485540d50b48927dd)]" {tinderbox: Win-x86@6, pull time 22012-12-03 09:03:45} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) I did a test with a text document containing 3 paragraphs Lorem Ipsum and a digicam photo.jpg 830 kB. Document size of document increased from 932 to 1310 kB after having used PixCompress . Picture in document looked fine after compression -- Rainer Bielefeld 06:44, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
      • With "LibreOffice 3.6.4.3" German UI/ German Locale [Build-ID: 2ef5aff] {pull date 2012-11-28} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) I did a test with a text document containing 3 paragraphs Lorem Ipsum and a screenshot of my desktop directly inserted from clipboard into the document. Document size of document decreased from 1831 to 464 kB after having used PixCompress . Picture in document looked unusable bad (fragments, blurred) after compression. -- Rainer Bielefeld 06:44, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
        • Undo works fine for compression, so the compression can be removed easily if the result is unsatisfactory -- Rainer Bielefeld 07:03, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
