Thanks for the idea :) We could do, 1. Upload the document into XWiki.OfficeImporter (The repository) 2. Have a GWT rpc call such as; String importDocument(String fileName, String targetPage); Here the fileName is the name of the attachment just added to XWiki.OfficeImporter and targetPage would be the name of the current wiki page being edited. As you said, the attached document itself can be deleted when the import is complete. (+ need to workaround name collisions with multiple users, but that's not a big issue IMO). Or you could just leave them there (could you?), as we do for all edit > situations, as I mentioned. Hmmmm, yes that's possible too. I was wondering if it's not that nice. Let's see if others agree.
