I have many documents created in OpenOffice Writer that contain images with title and description.
Is there a way to read and modify these using LibreOffice Writer 5? I looked, but I didn't yet find a way.
Apparently the entry was removed from the context menu, but it is still in the main menu bar. First select the image, then go to Format -> Object -> Description.

I have a document-level (dotx) customization, with a custom ribbon, and one of the controls in that ribbon is this:
<gallery idMso="CustomGallery1" label="Building Blocks" size="large" />
The only other part that makes this work is the creation of entries under Custom1 in the Building Blocks Organizer. In Word 2010, this would show all the building blocks under the Custom1 category. In Word 2013, it shows the name of each building block briefly, and then all of them are removed and the list is empty:
The building blocks themselves all contain either a document property or document variable.
I have tried the following to resolve this but without success:
Ensured that they are still present by opening the template outside of Visual Studio; they are.
Upgraded the template to the 2013 dotx format.
Re-created the building blocks.
Re-created the entire dotx file, and then re-created the building blocks.
I also tried using other ribbon IDs, they are empty too (they do all have entries) but they display it differently:
There should be four entries there, they exist in my Normal.dotm. The last two controls there, for equations and content controls, do work, except the content control that is inserted displays similar behavior as the Autotext gallery:
I don't know what should be shown in this case but I doubt it's nothing.
Right now I'm assuming that this is just a broken feature in 2013 and will have to replace it with something else. Does anyone know anything to the contrary?
I don't think it is a broken feature, after some struggle, I did get to understand how to use it:
The gallery button in the "toolbar" of a newly added Building Block Gallery Content Control indeed seems empty at first, because it is set to list QuickParts. You have to change it in the properties of the control so that it lists the content of the AutoText Gallery instead (or any other Gallery of Building Blocks you'd like). To do so, either directly click on the Properties button in the Developper tab while the control is selected, or switch to Design Mode so that the Properties appears in the context menu (right-click on the control):
AutoText is "Insertion automatique" in French, the rest you can guess ;)
As far as I could find, it's just a broken feature. There's also a ridiculous memory leak the first time you do a Find and add fields during that find.
I'm generating a report using itext and creating bookmarks in the report. I would like the PDF to open with the bookmark section expanded. I can modify the properties of the document AFTER generation so that this occurs, but the PDF is generated by a batch process, so I want to add this into the generation.
I've tried using addViewerPreference(PdfName, PdfObject) but cannot seem to get this setting to work. I am able to use it to set other initial properties, but not this one.
I'm guessing that either that property isn't supported at all, or is not supported in the version of itext I'm using. I'm still using 2.1.7.
So, I'm new to TYPO3. I worked myself through some guides and documentations to be able to create custom content elements on my own.
Now, for one of my desired content elements, I need to have a set of fields I want to be able to make repeatable, since I want to leave the choice up to the editor, how many of the sets he wants to add.
I'm running on TYPO3 version 7.6
I have already seen both options in existing content elements:
Content elements that work like a wrapper where you can add additional content elements within and
Content elements where you can add fieldsets within its configuration.
I'm searching for examples or written guides to recreate this, since I can't figure it out from the source code of those examples I've seen.
Edit(27.12.16):
So after seeing a few reactions and replies, I want to further clarify what I'm looking for.
I do NOT need an assistant plugin to create new content elements, I'm already past that.
Let me draw an example, to better describe what I want to achieve.
I do already have a working Content Element.
I have defined a set of fields (for example name & phone) shown in the TYPO3 backend. Now I want to leave the choice to the editor, if he just wants one set of 'name & phone' fields, or 2, or 8.
Therefore I want to create a '+'-button or something like that, for the editor to click on to make a new input set of 'name & phone'-inputs.
There is an extension called mask, with that you can simply click together your own content element with many different kinds of relations and fields.
Then there is a second extension mask_export that exports your new content elements into an own extension.
With those you can just create a very basic content element
export it
see what code was generated
add more to your content element
export it
check the code
and so on :-)
I am using VFR reader to display my pdf's. I need to extract the Table of Contents on a button click and display it in a tableview then it should lead to the respective pages while tapping on each.I googled for this and got these links
Create a table of contents from a pdf file
http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/iphone/ios-sdk-adding-a-table-of-contents-to-an-ipad-reader/
And i came to know that, to get TOC we must use "CGPDFDocumentGetCatalog(pdf doc)". But in my reader that "CGPDFDocumentGetCatalog(pdf doc)" is not at all getting called. Now how can i extract my TOC from my pdf file? Kindly help me out of this. I am struggling on this for a week. Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately I think the two answers you refer to point to different implementation strategies, which are both possibly valid but are different.
The first question is what the PDF files you have and want to show in your app look like. There is no such thing as a predefined TOC object in a PDF file, there are simply different ways to emulate this. The two most common ways are:
A) Bookmarks, which are a way to add little pieces of text to a structured tree, where each piece of text points to a specific location in the PDF file. These bookmarks can be added in the design application or later (there are specific tools to do so) and they can implement whatever structure.
B) Your PDF file might contain something that looks like a classic TOC from a book, which is basically just text on the opening pages, optionally with hyperlinks to specific locations in the book.
The second link you refer to shows how to create user interface where you can show the TOC in. The remaining question then is to figure out what items you want to display in the TOC window. In this second link you point to, the solution presented is to provide hard-coded items specific to one specific book. Of course this approach is not very useful when you want to display just any book.
So the question you are left with is how to figure out what items to display and where they link to.
If you consider my possibility A) above: a PDF file with bookmarks, the answer could be relatively simple. Answer 1 you point to explains how to look at the different structures inside a PDF file - bookmarks are simply such a structure (Defined in section 12.3 of the PDF specification: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf)
This means you could use the techniques shown there to walk the different objects in the PDF file, and find each bookmark. The bookmark will give you the text to display and the actual location in the PDF file that text should jump to when clicked.
If you consider my possibility B) above: a PDF file without bookmarks but a classic TOC, this will be much harder to solve. Such table of contents are simply text on one or more pages, optionally with hyperlinks. Of course you could try to find all text on these pages (if you can figure out on which page the TOC starts and ends), but you'd then also have to figure out where that item links to. If there are no hyperlinks involved, that would be a daunting task.
So your first question should be how generic you want to solve this problem. Do you know which PDF files you'll want to display? Can you devise a TOC for these files yourself (as in your solution 2)? If not, can you be sure all PDF files contain bookmarks? The answer to those questions will largely determine the rest of your strategy...
I am using CGPDF to parse a PDF for an iPhone application. I can get as far as obtaining the dictionary object but for the life of me I cant seem to locate the form fields in the PDF.
How can I get a list of the text fields in a PDF Document?
After I find the text fields, how can i know the location for each?
example: text field "First Name" is on page one at coordinate:(20,30) with size:(100,25)
If you've succeeded in getting to the Page dictionary, then try and check out the 'Annots' Array. The Array should contain a Dictionary entry for each Text field in the document. Each Dictionary entry should contain several entries such as 'rect' (among others) that will contain the coordinates of the field on the page.
If you have acrobat pro, a great way to browse the PDF document structure is to use 'Preflight' (Under the advanced menu). Once you have preflight running click on the 'options' button in the top right of the dialog and click on 'browse internal PDF structure' you can poke around here to see how your PDF is laid out.
You can also find additional info on the 'Annots' Array entry in the Adobe PDF Reference, Sixth Edition, version 1.7 , section 8.4.1 "Annotation Dictionaries".
hope that helps.
Annot array does not contain textfields rather it contain annotation objects.
