i quit trying to convert from pdf to swf, swf is slower than jpg anyway.
so here my way to convert OpenOffice documents to jpgs
Download and install free PdfCreator
http://www.chip.de/downloads/PDFCreator_13009777.htmland print all your documents to multipage tiff images.
Download and install free IrfanView
http://www.chip.de/downloads/IrfanView_12998187.htmlmake a sub folder C:\IrfanView
and put the following bat-file into it:
"C:\Program Files\IrfanView\i_view32.exe" %1 /extract=(split,jpg) /killmesoftly
"C:\Program Files\IrfanView\i_view32.exe" c:\IrfanView\split\*.jpg /advancedbatch /convert=c:\IrfanView\convert\*.jpg
del c:\IrfanView\split\*.jpg
(One way to create a bat-file is to create a simple txt-file and later change the txt-ending to bat (you have to deselect "hide known extension" / "Erweiterung bei bekannten Dateidtypen ausblenden" in the folder options of Windows Explorer))
Yes, add two more sub folders "split" and "convert" into the just made IrfanView-folder.
Of course, you might have to update the path to i_view32.exe
Than simply drag the multipage-tiff file made by PdfCreator onto the bat-file
done
To set the options for converting the single tiffs to jpg,
run IrfanView and do one "menu->File->Batch Conversion" manualy.
The settings will be saved to the IrfanView-ini-file and later used in the above batch file
You might want to RESIZE the images to the size used in megazine,
only select the height or the width and check the "Preserve aspect ratio" option.
Do not forget to check the "Use Resample function" option
