May sound like an adventure, but may be possible: Extract the compressed ods files (ZIP archive, if I remember correctly) and you have XML files (data files and style files); I am sure that there is a program that can interpret those data at least "read-only" and give you a readable output that you can forward to printer preprocessing (in order to have PS or PDF). As I've never really worked with Abiword, I can't tell you if it'll run on IA64 / sparc64 and if it will open the ods files... -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

how to read .ods (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) without KOffice?
I was sent some ods (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) files. I'm not really keen to install KOffice.
