Re: error converting docs using cfdocument and openoffice

I'm doing a lot of PPT/PPTX and DOC conversion in one of my apps. Usually I need to convert to image formats, but PDF would be similar: it sometimes simply fails. I think it's because some Office docs have too much gimmicky stuff packed into them. In any case I use some of the Aspose

With Git and Mercurial, you can shelve changes. So if you are part way through a big change and something important comes in, you can tell the source control system to stash the current changes out of the way, go back to your version prior to the current changes, make the new important changes
