how to use open office api

Hi ,

 

I just want to know how I can use the Open Office API
,without
installing Open office.

 

I want to use the api's in a java code to do a conversion of
MS Excel
file to PDF format.

 

This must be done on a IBM AS400 server.

 

Can samebody help me out?

You can use the URE (UNO Runtime Environment).

the URE alone won't help here. The URE provides UNO
functionality only, 
to use office functionality you need an office installation.
This will 
change in the future with the ODF toolkit.

I see you are right. Now can they put a remote call to the
openoffice.org  
sockets to use a remote convertion. Similar to what Laurent
Gogard put  
when he did OOoConv. He did it in PHP, but I guess it can be
ported with  
Java with no major issue.

Yes, you can connect to a remote OOo instance from Java and
perform a
conversion.

Have a look at JODConverter for example (I'm the author)
