PyODConverter Description

A free Python based tool that automates office document conversions from the command line using OpenOffice.org PyODConverter (Python OpenDocument Converter) is a free command line script that converts a document from one office format to another by connecting to an OpenOffice.org instance via Python-UNO bridge.The PyODConverter script does basically the same thing as the command line tool that comes with JODConverter but is much simpler. In fact the PyODConverter was released for the people who use JODConverter only from the command line (not as a Java library or web service) and would like a simpler alternative.NOTE: PyODConverter requires OpenOffice.org to be running as a service and listening on port (by default) 8100. The simplest way to start OpenOffice.org as a service is from the command line: soffice -headless -accept="socket,port=8100;urp;" Requirements: · Python-UNO · OpenOffice.org What's New in This Release: · Let OOo determine the input document type, rather than using the file extension. This means all OOo-supported input types should now be accepted without any additional configuration.
