------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenOffice::OODoc - The Open OpenDocument Connector (http://search.cpan.org/dist/OpenOffice-OODoc) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- For a introductory description of the purposes and capabilities of OpenOffice::OODoc, please read the OpenOffice::OODoc::Intro manual page. This page in contained in the OODoc/Intro.pod file of the CPAN distribution. It can be read on line using the following link: http://search.cpan.org/dist/OpenOffice-OODoc/OODoc/Intro.pod There is an alternative intro for french-reading users. It's available in ODF (http://jean.marie.gouarne.online.fr/doc/oodoc_guide.odt) or PDF format (http://jean.marie.gouarne.online.fr/doc/oodoc_guide.pdf). See INSTALL for system requirements and installation instructions for the CPAN original distribution. The present version supports the OASIS OpenDocument Format (ODF). It works with ODF 1.0 to 1.2, knowing that its present features are not directly impacted by the changes between the successive versions of the ODF standard. The legacy OpenOffice.org 1.0 format is still supported, too; however, the use of this deprecated format is not recommended for new documents. In addition, advanced users can rely on OpenOffice::OODoc to process any kind of flat or zipped XML files that don't comply with the ODF standard, so they can combine ODF documents with non-ODF XML data through a single application programming interface. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This software is free software.
