OpenOffice - Highlight code like gedit or kate  
Written by moose the 15 Nov 08 at 23:25. New
Since I code very often little PHP-Scripts which I have to print it would be nice to have a Code-Function that formats the marked area the following:

* Monospace font, e.g. Courier New
* Little, e.g. 10 pt
* Number lines - optional, you should be able to set the startnumber
* syntax highlighting like http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/de
* you should be able to choose the language (c++, PHP, Java...)

perhaps you could use the syntax highlighting of kate or gedit

Solution #2: Bundle COOoder extension with open-office or offer it in the repos
Written by diaa the 23 Mar 09 at 23:48.
COOoder is an OOo extension that makes it easier to syntax highlight text in OOo.

If it comes pre-installed or is offered through the repos this will solve this issue.
