Hi, great to get some help!
Dustin, the author of some of the Visio functionality, recently updated a few things already, but there is surely a big need for more description and guides for users to make it easier to get started. All the documentation pages live in Subversion at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/site/, the latest Apache POI code is at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/site/, it pulls in the docs via an SVN external link. When changes are checked in, they are immediately published to http://poi.apache.org/ <http://poi.apache.org/howtobuild.html> You probably can start by trying to get the docs built as described at http://poi.apache.org/howtobuild.html by installing Apache Forrest in the specified version. With this you can build the documentation pages locally and take a look before submitting them. You likely need to take a look at the available classes/code a bit and what functionality they provide. One thing that usually helps developers most is a "Quick Guide" which provides ready-made samples of how to do things with the library, see e.g. http://poi.apache.org/spreadsheet/quick-guide.html for something like this for the Excel format support. I suggest you take a look around a bit and then get back to us with any questions/hurdles that you ran into so we can get you going quickly! Dominik.
