alberto Gori commented on SEAMREPORTS-10:
-----------------------------------------
An interesting thing of docx4j, except from supporting docx format, is that it
can export to PDF without requiring an installation of Microsoft Office.
Looking at documentation it seems to do the job throught FOP.
So, what about doing the same for ODF? This project
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/office2fo/) is able to transform ODF files to
FO format (thanks to XSLT). At this point Seam Reports could transform FO to
PDF (thourght FOP or some other commercial library).
I don't know if the whole process is reliable...and if it works well for every
ODF file.

> Project: Seam Reports
> Issue Type: Feature Request
> Reporter: alberto Gori
> Labels: document, openoffice, reporting, template

> Would be nice to see a solution for dynamic reporting using customer
> templates. Many times customers give us a template (OpenOffice or Word
> document), and we are supposed to produce reports based on them, maybe adding
> some other images, signature etc.
> So I suggest a Seam Report API able to read a customer template (odt etc),
> manipulate this document (set fields, adding table rows, adding images, etc)
> and produce PDF. For example an API that hides all the complexity of UNO
> (http://udk.openoffice.org/) or some other tool for document manipulation.
> The key part is existent document manipulation.
