I just released an alpha version of a python class library:
PyOOTools - Process OpenOffice.org Writer Files and transform them to
PDF without installing OpenOffice.org
=>
* Make serial letters and reports from templates in the SXW-Format
and store them anew as SXW-Files
* Extract the pure text information from the SXW-Document and store
it in a plain text file or a PDF-File
* Perform simple transformations from SXW-Files to PDF-Files
without installing OO - for example on a webserver
It contains about 1300 lines of python code and uses the
ReportlabToolkit, the Python Imaging Library and the XML-Sax-Parser from
the Standard Library.As far as I know there is nothing comparable in
Python yet. I would ask you for testing and bug reports.
The library is found here:
