Why convert ODG to PDF?

ODG is the vector drawing format of LibreOffice Draw, based on the OpenDocument standard; .pdf is universally readable without an office suite. Converting lets recipients view the diagram without LibreOffice, prevents accidental edits, and gives consistent output for printing.

About these formats

Quality & what to watch

  • Vectors are preserved - shapes, curves and text export as vector objects in the PDF, not as a rasterized image.
  • Embedded raster images are included at their original resolution; a low-resolution image placed in the drawing will appear low-resolution in the PDF.
  • All pages in a multi-page ODG drawing are included in the PDF export by default.

Can I convert without installing LibreOffice?
