Hi Devs, Currently OfficeImporter requires an OpenOffice server to be present in the same computer as XE. I have been searching about adding support for a remote OpenOffice server but the results are not very promising: http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/f4f0e8328d… Even though this is the case, I think we can settle on a compromise with the following approach: * We develop a stand-alone servlet (probably under xwiki-tools just like the root-web-app) * The purpose of this servlet is to: 1. Accept incoming office documents 2. Convert them into html (results in multiple files) 3. Zip the results together 4. Stream the zipped content back to the client * And the client would be any xwiki instance that is configured to consume this converter-servlet. This way, multiple XWiki instances would be able to share a central OpenOffice server via the converter-servlet. The downside of this approach is that there has to be a servlet container on the remote computer which is hosting the OpenOffice server. Please let me know what you think about this idea. Thanks. - Asiri
