Enhanced export options for bitmap files

by cl
(6 votes)

This extension adds a new options dialog when you export slides or selections from OpenOffice.org Impress or OpenOffice.org Draw to either PNG, JPG or GIF bitmap files. It allows you to change the pixel size and some other format specific settings like the image compression factor for JPG.

Just install the extension, open up an Impress or Draw document and go to File->Export and select either PNG, JPG or GIF. After selecting a location and a file name press save. The new dialog should pop up.

This extension requires Java.

Transparent Background

Is it possible to add the ability to export with a transparent background and alpha transparency?

Export to TIFF & setting colour depth

Cl, thank you for the development of this needed export functionality. It is very much appreciated.

In case you (or someone else) happen to do further work on this functionality, it would be great if it could be enhanced with the following features:
a) exporting to TIFF
b) setting the colour depth (i.e. number of bits used for colour coding) when exporting to PNG and to TIFF

I use OOo Draw and I need to output the drawings to TIFF in black & white (1-bit colour depth). With the version 0.0.2-rc-1 of the plug-in, the drawing can be exported to PNG with 24-bits colour depth, unfortunately not to TIFF 1-bit colour depth. I have to load the exported PNG file into GIMP to convert it to the wanted TIFF 1-bit colour depth format. It would be great if the plug-in could output the OOo drawings directly to the desired TIFF format with the desired colour depth.

Great Extension

This is a great extension! I missed this feature since I use OpenOffice.org.
