Hey,
since the beginning of the SDK we have such a simple example that
exactly does what you want on a given directory ;-)
<sdk>/java/DocumentHandling/DocumentConverter.java
- compile the sample (using the SDK env, necessary to include the UNO
simple bootstrap classes. Otherwise you have to include the class files
on your own and have to make provide the required manifest entry)
- and run it with
java -jar DocumentConverter.jar "./test" "MS Word 97" "doc"
"./converted_files"
where
- "./test" specifies the source directory (all documents in this
directory will be converted)
- "MS Word 97" = filter name
- "doc" = extension for the converted files
- "./converted_files" specifies the target directory where the
converted files are stored
This example can be simply improved to be more comfortable ;-)

Hi Louis,
"File > Wizards > Document Converter" not working?
:-) that's how I usually answer the question when it comes up. But many
large corporations/government offices seem anxious about converting
thousands, if not tens of thousands, of docs.
the batch way that is decribed is the implementation of OOoConv i did in
2003. The working site for transformation is actually down but the
source code is available here.
http://oooconv.free.fr/oooconv/oooconv_en.html
a GUI local tool, enhancing the document converter is also available
http://oooconv.free.fr/batchconv/batchconv_en.html
all are free LGPL softwares
a python version, and XML-RPC, will be released soon as a more
professional approach ;) (the sooner as i can :( )
