 Posted: Mon Sep 27, 2004 7:02 am Post subject: options for draw_html_export filter |
 |
|
Hi folks,
A macro I run automatically from the command line to convert large numbers of documents to various formats (pdf, html, & ms office) is producing lousy jpg/html images of draw documents. I've tried converting manually (from within openoffice) & I get very nice output -- but I have to set a bunch of options first, in the user interface that opens up when I click on "export" in the file menu. I would like to be able to set these parameters when converting automatically, but I don't know what the names and posible values of the relevant parameters. How do I find this out? I remember having seen some discussion of this in this forum, but I can't find the relevant page now (though I have found the excellent list of filters that Danny b posted some time ago).
Pointers appreciated! thanks,
Matt
ps, changed the header, sorry about the initial typos. |

I got a great reply on the api list, from stephan wunderlich:

All you have to do is to set the FilterData, which is an Array of
Property Values ... the names of the properties can be found at
"sd/source/filter/html/htmlex.cxx"
|
(this is great! I guess in general when dealing with filters you look in the source code for
s(d/c/i/w)/source/filter/... for the options. In my version of the code, the relevant code starts ca. line 557, with:
/** get common export parameters from item set */
void HtmlExport::InitExportParameters( const Sequence< PropertyValue >& rParams )
)
| Quote: |
so something like the following should work attached to a draw document
with an image :
| Code: |
dim filterdata(1) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
filterdata(0).Name="Compression"
filterdata(0).Value="100%"
filterdata(1).Name="Width"
filterdata(1).Value="1024"
dim saveargs(1) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
saveargs(0).Name="FilterName"
saveargs(0).Value="draw_html_export"
saveargs(1).Name="FilterData"
saveargs(1).Value=filterdata()
thiscomponent.storetourl("file:///<wherever>/withpicture.html",saveargs())
|
|
So, this is great! but I have two more issues now:
1) when I try to add a third PropertyValue to filterdata, like this
| Code: |
filterdata(2).Name="IsExportContentsPage"
filterdata(2).Value="True"
|
I get an out-of-range error. So I guess there's a limit on the number of values you can list in a propertyvalue. so what do I do when I want more than 2?
And finally, I'm having trouble translating the above code into python. I've tried the following, but it doesn't seem to work:
| Code: |
filterName = filterTable[docType][output]
filterProperty = PropertyValue()
filterProperty.Name="FilterName" ; filterProperty.Value=filterName
saveargs = [filterProperty,]
filterData = []
-----snip------
filterOptions = [ ("Compression", "100%"),
("Width", "1024"),
#("ContentsPage", True),
("Mode", "PUBLISH_FRAMES")
]
filterData=tuple(filterData)
options = PropertyValue()
options.Name = "FilterData"
options.Value=filterData
saveargs=(filterProperty, options)
oDoc.storeToURL( cTargetURL, saveargs )
for option in filterOptions:
property = createPropertyValue(option[0], option[1])
filterData.append(property)
|
would love some help! thanks.
