[opensuse-wiki] Zypper cheat sheet
Dear all, Can anyone point me to the editable source of the Zypper cheat sheets at <https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Zypper_usage#Cheat_sheet>? I believe I've identified some errors in the cheat sheets and want to correct them, but I can't do that when all I have are the PDFs. I tried posting on the discussion page at <https://en.opensuse.org/File_talk:Zypper-cheat-sheet-1.pdf> but I doubt that it's being monitored by anyone. The users who contributed the PDFs, Digitaltomm (in CC) and Tomm-fa, don't seem to have been active for many years.

Oh, I see you are right -- LibreOffice Draw opens it as if it were a drawing. I suppose I could do it this way if the source isn't available.

No, for this job you really need the original source. Doing what you suggest means starting from almost scratch. I can only see that the PDF producer is listed as "cairo 1.12.2". Isn't that the engine LO uses? But searching via google for the file "Zypper-cheat-sheet-1.pdf" I find other sources for it, one at github, marketing materials something by Carlos Ribeiro. The source document could be there. I see some .svg files around there, but I have no idea about the licensing. Some other person familiar with git should continue the search ;-) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

I guess you are talking about <https://github.com/openSUSE/artwork/tree/master/Marketing Materials/Cheat Cube/Zypper> which is actually a directory in the official, CC BY-SA–licensed openSUSE artwork repository. Unfortunately the sources don't seem to be there either. (The SVG file there is for the "cheat cube", not the A4- and letter-size cheat sheets.)

Sounds like from the mention of .svg, maybe he did actually hand craft them as graphics, rather than a document. Even svg wouldn't be a good enough "source" even if you did want to continue working with it as a graphic, because you would want *at least* the exact original fonts. The layers and other work components would be at least nice too. So even as a graphic you want the .xcf or .psd, etc. Otherwise, if you need to edit any text at all, then the best you can do is start with the svg just to get the scalable version of the graphics, and the replace *all* of the text with new text, just so that it all uses the same new font from your machine, and the same font settings for exact size, boldness, etc. You'd never get the look to exactly match otherwise. Probably not only better but easier to just re-create the whole thing manually in libereoffic presenter or writer, and then you have a maintainable "document". Unless "Juan" can be found and he can supply such source that he just never mentioned originally. -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+owner@opensuse.org
