Re: [xwiki-devs] Office document converter configuration

Hi devs, Currently, the office importer module doesn't expose any configuration options for the office document conversion. Most of the available parameters are used to control the connection to the open office server. Office importer module uses jodconverter ( http://code.google.com/p/jodconverter/ ) to convert from different office document formats to HTML. The conversion is controlled by a "document format registry". jodconverter provides two DocumentFormatRegistry implementations: * a default implementation, that can be configured only programmatically; this is the one we're currently using * an implementation that reads the configuration from a JSON file; this is easy to overwrite by putting a document-formats.js file (with the JSON configuration) in /WEB-INF/classes/ I'd like to change the office import module to use the JSON document format registry if possible (i.e. document-formats.js is present and can be parsed) otherwise the default document format registry. This will allow us to control, for instance, the size of the images generated when importing/viewing a presentation (the default size is 640x480 which is not enough if you have slides with a lot of information). Do you think this is worth introducing in 2.7 or should I wait for 3.0?
