Draw on JPG image

by hpwebber » Sun Jun 16, 2019 12:39 pm

I have a drawing in JPG format and I want to modify it. How can I import it into OpenOffice Draw and then work with it?

OpenOffice 4.1.6 Windows 10

Draw is designed for managing vector based images, not pixel based images like JPEG. You need to use an image editor such as IrfanView or GIMP.
