28 Thanks for this post - I've been needing to use this functionality for
29 the last few days, and hadn't tried building libreoffice.

31 I just built app-office/libreoffice-3.5.0.1 (cleverly without
32 USE="pdfimport", so I installed oracle-pdfimport.oxt manually), and
33 although it took quite a lot of CPU time to Import, it's now working.

35 Thanks again,
