Amazing. These didn't exist previously! The document I looked at (the .ppt format) says that "This specification is provided under the Microsoft Open Specification Promise.". Interesting. It appears that people may legally use these documents, and even copy them. And it seems that the document indeed contains all the information I once needed when I wrote that text extractor. Although it still would have taken me days to understand this bizarre format, at least I wouldn't have had to guess what all the strange records meant. So, I guess there's no reason to say any more that these formats are undocumented. -- Nadav Har'El | Monday, Feb 20 2012, n...@math.technion.ac.il |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |Happiness isn't getting what you want, http://nadav.harel.org.il |it's wanting what you've got. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
