I think you should pay attention to the issue #69129
(http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=69129)
It is about smart font technology called "Graphite". If you know
something about OpenType technology, Graphite is very similar to it, but
has something that makes it the best smart font technology of all.
Beside that it gives better typographic control to a user, it was
originally intented to make it possible for any people to educate, to
type and work with a computer in their own language irrespective of (1)
to what extent the script that this language uses has sophisticated
behavior and (2) whether this language and particular script are used by
great or very small community. Graphite unlike OpenType is extensible,
free and open-sourced, so the point (2) is attainable with an ease. It
has many other advantages. In fact Graphite is really indispensable with
the issues of internationalization. Support for Graphite would much
simlify the process of localization of OOo and would give much
typographic potential to it.

[discuss] PDF Viewer/Editor for OpenOffice?

IMHO all that is really needed is a program to convert PDFs to ODF
files. Once they are in the ODF form, OOo can then edit them.

The licensce maintains that the actual program is like water - you can
get water for free out of the tap, but there's nothing stopping you
from buying it bottled at extortionate prices. Only the source is
protected per se.

The only legit reaction that we can have is to promote OpenOffice and
make people aware of the freeness of it all

[discuss] Saving Calc workbooks to html...

That will create a PDF file which is paginated if i'm not mistaken...
which may not exactly be ideal for the purposes of creating an
overview of a spreadsheet...

This should really be something worth fixing, I suggest that the
export dialouges should have a 'show options' button that allows you
to configure the export options....
