Alfresco Community defaults to leverage LibreOffice for HTML webpreview generation. I think this is wrong. For obvious reasons.

A good reason to finally address ALF-11942 if you ask me. 😜

Joking aside: I have seen LibreOffice ending up in an infinite loop while rendering HTML pretty frequently. And I never understood the point of creating PDF (web!)previews for HTML at all.

Über Andreas Steffan

Complexity is ugly. I love it straight, fast, simple and open. I believe in true Open Source, the Open Web and Linux. I freelance in the JVM- and Content-Management spaces. My preferences are Clojure, Groovy, JavaScript, Java, Alfresco and WordPress. Emacs is my religion.
