Description rmano 2002-07-11 12:00:01 UTC 
Some time (I am not sure, but it seems to happen whenever I paste something in 
draw from another OO.org application) the generated postscript is illegal. 
It varies from case to case, but there is a general pattern: a row of the 
following aspect: 

-(.000-( -(.000-( t

is generated. If I delete such row (or rows, it depends) the EPS works ok. 
I will attach a file that fails shortly.

Comment 2 rmano 2002-07-11 12:06:24 UTC 
In the attached file you'll find:

graf.sxd: a simple logo of my institution. Pasted from OO.org 
presentation program.
graf.eps: the generated incorrect postscript.
graf-correct.eps: hand-corrected EPS. 
culprit.diff: diff -u of the last two mentioned files. 

It happens the same with charts pasted from spreadsheets, so it's 
not specific to presentation.
Comment 3 rmano 2002-08-26 13:20:49 UTC 
It seems that another flavour of the same problem is in 1.0.1 (I 
have not checked yet if the old one was resolved: anyone?)

I will attach a .sxd file that, when exporting to EPS, will have a 
line containing a "efp" command on a line. If you change the 
"efp" into "ef p" --- adding a space --- the eps will work fine. 

Have a nice day, 
                Romano

Comment 5 rmano 2002-11-14 11:50:37 UTC 
Problem is confirmed in 1.0.1
Is there anyone looking into it?

I am experiencing problems when exporting a selection to EPS from
Impress. Sometimes the result has some missing elements, sometimes I
get an error on the EPS file, not clear the triggering factor.
Comment 7 wolframgarten 2002-11-29 09:09:06 UTC 
I tested this quite intensive and in OO 1.0.1 the problem with the
wrong eps code is reproduceable but not in an actual internal one.
Therefore the problem with the eps export should be fiixed in version
OO 1.1. Thanks for your copious description and file delivery!!
