Star Office to FO

Hello List,

does anybody know a project or Stylesheets to convert Star Office Documents
saved in XML into PDFs using FO? I found HTML2Fo for HTML transformations,
but nothing for Staroffice.. :( 

Thanks !

Jan

writer2latex http://www.hj-gym.dk/~hj/writer2latex/ convert OO-Documents to 
LaTeX and XHTML.
After this, you can use HTML2FO.

Another possibility, is that Apache Forrest[1] currently can take 
OpenOffice.org Writer & Impress documents and translate that into a PDF 
document. I think StarOffice Writer is the same as OOo Writer. IIRC, it 
uses an XSL transform document called openoffice-writer2fo.xsl. The OOo 
stuff is in the standard 0.6 distribution, but they are moving the OOo 
stuff into a plugin (probably for 0.7 or perhaps 0.6.1). There are some 
folks enabling embedded images and such to come through, although I 
don't know if that works for the PDF generation as well, or just for 
the HTML stuff.

At present, the transformation is pretty bare bones, but as with all 
open source projects, patches are welcome! Good luck!
