For anyone who has never tried it, I'll add that the open office formats are an absolute beast to export to. I can't say for sure about docx but I've done my time building a PowerPoint exporter (on top of Microsoft provided ooxml libraries even). It is complex enough that I'm not even sure such an

I’ve seen that LibreOffice can read and write to those formats, whereas OpenOffice can only read them. Or has OpenOffice overcome that particular barrier? Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Rob Sargent Sent:

Okay, I got that working, but now I’ve run into another error complaining about a missing “soffice.” So that means I need to install either Apache OpenOffice or LibreOffice, correct? Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Bruce

Okay. Well, I’m running Emacs on (boo, hiss) Windows, but I can’t seem to get my Org mode file to export to ODT. Emacs is complaining about a missing “zip” executable. How would I go about working around that little issue on a Windows system? Sent from

MS Office supports OpenDocument, so that might be better path for org to support. I've wondered myself why it doesn't already support it. On Sat, Jun 26, 2021, 10:48 AM Brandon Taylor wrote: > I know we’re not supposed to really even TALK about proprietary software > in FOSS communities like

I know we’re not supposed to really even TALK about proprietary software in FOSS communities like this one, but I can’t help but wonder if someone might consider making (an) Emacs plugin(s) that allow(s) a user to export Org mode files to Microsoft Office file formats such as .docx, .xlsx and
