Marc,

Idea sounds good, but there is also another competitor out there to the famous 
PDF :

How about adding editing/viewing djvu compatibility to LibreOffice too?

I for one (except under windows) use evince/okular/xpdf or other free viewers 
out there as opposed to using Acrobat Reader :)  Having LibreOffice open 
word/excel/powerpoint/pdf is excellent, but adding djvu will also enhance it 
and make it even better (others don't have this capability).  But keep the full 
suite, don't worry about a reader some folks already have a odt/doc/xls viewer 
on the windows side:

Someone mentioned this, I think that it would be not necessary to ask 
programmer to make a reader?  Doing more work when other similar software 
exists?
Unless if that software is (NOT FREE)/(OPEN SOURCE), there would be little to 
no gains if a LibreOffice Reader is created?

BTW
I am a LibreOffice user not a programmer and happily use it on Windows, Linux, 
and FreeBSD.

Just my $0.02.

Antonio

I also use Okular, although, I have found some cases where it would not print some .pdf's correctly. Djvu is neat, however, it is still struggling trying to make headway in being adopted.

I think it was mentioned that there were at one point over 100 million LibreOffice/OOo users. If we were to develop our own "LibreOffice Reader" we would already have 100 million potential users for our product. Not only that, the LibreOffice Reader would be compatible with the LibreOffice suite and possibly code. This would give the LibO Reader a good start.

Cheers

Marc
