My understanding is that it is advised to use converters and general serializers (probably because that gives more flexibility by decoupling the conversion from the serialisation).
Yes.
I will probably have to write an OpenOffice converter and I am wondering
if I should write a converter directly instead of writing a serializer
and extending it into a converter like that's done for the current
converters I have looked at for guidance.
What do you think?
Yes, the current architecture is the way it is just due to the fact that the serializers were refactored into converters. So the code looks more complicated than it should and I wouldn't recommend following that model. Instead, you should just go ahead and produce a converter in the first place.
