For export, 3.5.0.1 does the job without any problem, so it was something wrong with 3.5.0.0, which got pulled very quickly. For import, I was expecting something more complicated (wry smile). Yes, all you have to do is 'open' the file & it comes up in Draw, where you can indeed edit the text. I didn't try anything else nor did I try saving an edited version of a PDF, but it's good to know that you can open one & modify it. Someone else mentioned Java : no, you don't need Java for PDFs in LO. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
