This is great. Now can somebody fix the thee issues that prevent OpenOffice.org from being used as a serious layout tool?
1) Images are down sampled and compressed in poor quality (even when printing to the Adobe PDF print driver).
2) Justification is crappy and produces rivers of white-space in columns.
3) Typography sucks. No ligature support. No OpenType support.
Do that, and OpenOffice.org will be a serious contender.
