    Guys I have made .pdf files from .odt files with open office and 
they open fine with the linux viewer Evince but when I try to load them 
to Scribus it says they are not good and will not load them. This is 
Linux to Linux and it fails. Sribus will load other .pdf files I have 
that came from other sources.

    I think the message is that OO makes a poor pdf and we need a better 
Linux system to make a pdf. I am reading about Scribus and will see if 
it makes a better pdf.
