i think sooner or later it should or will cover the whole ODF spec, means all application areas. But you shouldn't expect a full-fledged calculation and rendering engine ;-). That means printing might be a problem a swell as heavy use of forumlas in a spreadsheet doc.

Hi Dan,

Using the tutorials in the wiki, I now know how to load, modify, and
save writer docs using the API.  However, we are writing a desktop app
that we will distribute and would like to avoid distributing the open
office executables (just the api libraries, would be preferable).

All I need to do is add a graphic or two and some values in
pre-specified locations.  Is it possible to do this without using the
OO services of a hidden OO instance and just either parse the doc or
build an app from scratch using API calls?
There's no "stripped-down" version of OpenOffice.org, but the ODF
Toolkit at http://odftoolkit.org/ pretty much sounds like what you want.

Ciao
Frank
