    Greetings! Just an FYI on a recent European report on editors for legislation. Legislation is a particularly challenging area of authoring. Might see some requirements we have not clearly identified. https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/elibrary/document/isa-leos-final-results Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I wasn't aware you need pictures for legislative drafting file formats. So while this may be just a "found argument" does such an ODF limitation exist? Best, André
