Hi,

I would like to know, why does libreoffice open up after running in a
terminal "libreoffice --convert-to odt *.doc?

It should not do this. Check your installation again. (E.g:
http://www.mail-archive.com/users%40global.libreoffice.org/msg12280.html http://www.mail-archive.com/users%40global.libreoffice.org/msg33265.html

What if I want a recursive behaviour?

Try:

libreoffice --convert-to odt ./*.doc

Hi,

1) Hmm, I didn't understand those links, the errors displayed are these:

javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!


Warning: failed to read path from javaldx

2) I'm not an expert or a sysadmin but I read some books about Linux. ls
and ls . or ls ./ is the same.

3) I tried with - $ libreoffice --headless --convert-to odt $(ls -R)
        - $ libreoffice --headless --convert-to odt < file < ls -R
- $ libreoffice --headless --convert-to odt $(find . -name "*.docx*") - $ libreoffice --headless --convert-to odt $(find . -name "*.docx*")
--outdir dir/

and it didn't work out...

I know very little Bash and some C. I think a script it's a better idea.
It has to execute the libreoffice command in each directory so that the
outdir is "that" directory.

I wish somebody could code it. If not, I will do it myself in the future.

Sincerely,

Ed


Hi.
What are you trying to achieve.
I have to run a script to convert all older documents on our server to newer ODF format. I am going to do that by regression into the directory specified as the parameter to the script when called. I haven't got round to it yet as it is not required until I update LO, but is that what you are after.

Another way is to use the wizard in libreoffice (File > Wizards > Document Converter ) from a PC on the same network than the server and using a network share.

We used this solution to convert tons of documents in order to avoid CPU charge on servers that were used for other purposes and it was nice (only I/O on the servers). We were able to parallelize tasks with multiple PCs, each one was dealing with a dedicated sub-directory of the share.

Just my 2 cents.
