JOD Converter, a Great Utility for Conversion of the Documents

There is always a requirement for a programmer to be able to present the reports and all other important documents in various available formats and this was a requirement for me too. So, to add this ability to my existing and upcoming projects too, I looked upon the existing solution suitable for me. And thus after a lot of search I found a solution, a utility that will be helpful to me to perform the conversion of these files.

It is JOD COnverter. (Not a S/W purely, it is a library basically.)

JODConverter, the Java OpenDocument Converter, converts documents between different office formats. It leverages OpenOffice.org, which provides arguably the best import/export filters for OpenDocument and Microsoft Office formats available today.

JODConverter automates all conversions supported by OpenOffice.org, including

  • Microsoft Office to OpenDocument, and viceversa

    • Word to OpenDocument Text (odt); OpenDocument Text (odt) to Word

    • Excel to OpenDocument Spreadsheet (ods); OpenDocument Spreadsheet (ods) to Excel

    • PowerPoint to OpenDocument Presentation (odp); OpenDocument Presentation (odp) to PowerPoint

  • Any format to PDF

    • OpenDocument (Text, Spreadsheet, Presentation) to PDF

    • Word to PDF; Excel to PDF; PowerPoint to PDF

    • RTF to PDF; WordPerfect to PDF; ...

  • And more


    • OpenDocument Presentation (odp) to Flash; PowerPoint to Flash

    • RTF to OpenDocument; WordPerfect to OpenDocument

    • Any format to HTML (with limitations)

    • Support for OpenOffice.org 1.0 and old StarOffice formats

    • ..
