Description cwgerig 2005-01-27 18:43:09 UTC 
When I publish or export a document to PDF, the export works but the Adobe 
acrobat Icon is not displayed.  Instead I am getting some generic icon, maybe 
from Windows.  This is not a problem for me except that the pdf document does 
not open automatically.  When I click on such a document I get a menu from 
Windows XP Pro that asks me if I want to open it with Acrobat.

If I publish to PDF from WordPerfect 9, it will render the Acrobat Icon with 
the document and double clicking the document will result in it automatically 
opening the document.  This is a small thing, but it is confusing to 
recipients of OpenOffice PDF documents who don't know what to do with it.

Is it just me, my installation, or is this an issue?  Thanx

Not, that is not really an OO issue. The Icon is provided by the native
application (Adobe Reader e.g.) and handed to the system.
What OO can do is (what also WP9 seems to do): provide an Icon to the systems
which looks similar to the Sdobe Icon. Using the same Icon could be some legal
issue, I think...
