Hi Afshad

Im trying to figure out if there is a Open Office Java API ? So far I have been using ODFToolkit.org 's Java API to create .odp files.
Is this one from Open Office better and more widely used?
Is there a getting started guide?

Yes, there's an API for Java, C++, Python, StarBasic etc. The main site is http://api.openoffice.org/ and the developer's guide starts at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide which has various Java examples. More Java-Samples can be found under http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/API/Samples/Java and there's a code snippet collection: http://codesnippets.services.openoffice.org/index.xml

The main difference to ODFToolkit as far as I've understood it is that with the OpenOffice.org-API you're working directly with a running OpenOffice instance instead of directly accessing the contents of .od*-files. So it really depends on your use case.

Have fun

Arthur
