[NTLUG:Announce] NTLUG Meeting, Saturday April 18, 2009, Batch Conversion

[Low-traffic NTLUG announcement list]

Greetings,

I honestly do NOT remember who had approached me a couple of months
ago about presenting... whoever it was, now is an excellent time
to remind me at cjcox which is at acm under the dot org.

If we do not have a presenter, I'll share information about how
to drive openOffice in batch using the pyUNO interface and about
DC.py which is nice upgrade to the popular (but less than functional)
DocumentConverter.py batch coversion program. DC.py allows you
to batch convert Microsoft Office, etc. documents into formats
more easily handled including HTML, openOffice formats, jpg, etc.

We use this where I work with a wrapper recipe in PmWiki to handle
uploading foreign docs and portraying/converting them into something
reasonable.

It's pretty cool stuff.
