And what do you think about using Open Office's UNO APIs ? If someone did, does it scale well ?

Yes Check out http://api.openoffice.org/ , They have good examples, I can also provide you my small test. You can do some amazing things with their API.

Their API is amazing. However, you run into the same problems that you do when you automate MS Office using VBA. Which is instability and everything is single-threaded. Your are basically automating a gui application. -Ryan - Original Message - From: Genty Jean-Paul [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Lucene Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 25, 2004 1:17 PM Subject: Re: Need advice: what Word/Excel/PowerPoint lib to use?

Your are basically automating a gui application. AFAIK they don't provide a separate converters' API, which is a pity. The results of the conversion are I think one of the best, if not the best, that you can get with OpenSource tools, but the fact that all converters are so entangled with the rest of the application practically excludes their use in high-volume applications... -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki - Software Architect, System Integration Specialist CEN/ISSS EC Workshop, ECIMF project chair EU FP6 E-Commerce Expert/Evaluator - FreeBSD developer (http://www.freebsd.org) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
