Hi,
I would like to announce here another option to create professional
documents through OpenOffice. This week I released a new version of
unoconv, which is a tool that converts various formats (supported by
OpenOffice) non-interactively. This means you can convert from ODF to DOC,
PDF or HTML through a commandline tool, eg. from a Makefile.
The new version of unoconv can apply an OpenOffice style template (.ott)
or the styles from another ODF document during the conversion. Which
practically means that if you have an ODF that doesn't look the way you
prefer, you can modify it to make it look the way you want (through the
use of styles) and then save those styles to apply to future updates
without having to do the same work over again.
This opens up countless of opportunities together with docbook2odf or
xhtml2odf, if you want to apply a certain corporate identity and re-apply
that in the future. This impacts a lot of things, headers, footers, page,
paragraph and character styles and possibly more, through an interface
that less technical people are familiar with.
As an example I have made available my asciidoc version of my CV, and the
different actions to create a stylish ODF, DOC, PDF, HTML and RTF version
with a single Makefile.

Unoconv works on various Linux distributions, Windows and MacOSX.
Feedback, ideas and patches are welcome !
Kind regards,
