You didn't lose your habit of short, expeditive answers :-)
Why wouldn't it be possible ? Because koffice expects a KoPart (vapourware
name for the
current KPart), i.e. a part that handles rotation, deformation, ... ?
Well, we could have a "gateway" that would allow embedding a KPart ?
Oh I see, in this case this would mean embedding a whole window (like
in konqy currently), not a nice embedded part with a frame to resize it, ...
Reggie, when you said embedding kghostview into a KOffice part, you meant :
as current koffice part work, I suppose ? Then I must agree with Torben,
this
would be very difficult to do. kghostview would need to implement a koffice
part,
not only a KPart...
