Experience with OpenOffice::OODoc ?

punch_card_don has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Mighty Monks,

I've found and am considering using the Perl module OpenOffice::OODoc. The intention is to create a slide presentation template using Open Office, store it on a server, then use OpenOffice::OODoc to edit it on the server before downloading it to the user in such a way that the user's PowerPOoint will automatically open and display the downloaded presentation.

I believe this to be possible.

Does anyone have experience with this module and could let me know what they think of it?

Thanks.

Forget that fear of gravity,
Get a little savagery in your life.

Why would it not work? It does not sound like you are really pushing the limits here. The only thing that could be a problem would be the speed of the creation and making sure users have a powerpoint viewer of some sort.	[reply]
