The Grumpy Editor's guide to diagram editorsThe Grumpy Editor's guide to diagram editorsPosted May 4, 2004 22:36 UTC (Tue) by rknop (guest, #66)Parent article: The Grumpy Editor's guide to diagram editors What I *really* want is a way to *import* Postscript into OpenOffice.org. Not as an image (though even a postscript file with a preview image as XFig handles it would be nice, and OOo doesn't do that), but as the actual objects, so that they might be moved about and further edited. I've managed to do it, sort of, into XFig using ps2fig. I find that it's sort of a pain to deal with at that point. I also haven't managed to export XFig into something that can be imported into OpenOffice.org. This too is a pain. ps2fig does have a DXF option, which ostensibly OpenOffice.org supports, but I find the translation is no good. OpenOffice.org thinks that the imported drawing (in the cases I've tried-- I have a very specific need) is -Rob

The Grumpy Editor's guide to diagram editors Posted May 5, 2004 4:40 UTC (Wed) by jamesh (subscriber, #1159) [Link] Sounds like you want pstoedit.
The Grumpy Editor's guide to diagram editors Posted May 6, 2004 2:01 UTC (Thu) by rknop (guest, #66) [Link] pstoedit is what I've used to import postscript files into XFig.I have yet to make a series of transitions to import it into OpenOffice.org succesfully, however. Have you managed to do that with pstoedit? If so, how? -Rob
