Cyclone3 has employed JODConverter

Published 2009-02-03 in Development by jondrusek

Cyclone3 now uses JODConverter on front of OpenOffice.org to convert between OpenDocument (ODS, ODT), MS Office (DOC, XLS) and Portable Document Format (PDF).While strongly supporting the OpenDcoument format, this is a step towards higher interoperability and flexibility.

JODConverter is a Java wrapper for OpenOffice.org that enables automatic batch conversion of document formats. We have integrated it to Cyclone3 framework.

We have created a back-end service that manages on-demand conversion between document formats supported by OpenOffice.org. At the moment this is used in XULadmin to produce exports in non-standard formats. XULadmin is able to produce different XML formats, including OpenDocument. This is sent to the back-end service which performs conversion and retrieved again by front-end.
