Thanks! This is a bit elephant, but it requires no setup and it works. My previous via-pdf approach was to export a .pdf from OpenOffice, but for some reason Windows Adobe Acrobat Reader refused to load the .pdf file + it didn't work for e.g. Evolution. All we need now is a "xwinps2pdf" utility :-) Beats me how to go about this in a generic, no options, no setup way though. I don't think xwinclip supports copy & paste of files... Øyvind
