Bug Description
Binary package hint: kword
kword 2.1.2 (I only installed kword and its dependencies, not koffice)
ubuntu 10.04
Various places on the net say that Kword can import PDF files, for example here: http://
Kword 2.1.2 in Ubuntu 10.04 is missing the PDF import filter. Kword is the only linux native application which can import PDF files and export them as ODT files, so this is an important function currently missing from Ubuntu.
These websites are most likely referring to KOffice1. You may wish to request this feature at bugs.kde.org, but this is not a packaging bug. KOffice2 just doesn't support PDF import yet.
