- Some background information: Many modern office file formats (.odt, .sxw, .sxc, etc) are ZIP archives that contain XML files. You can uncompress the file using Java's ZIP support, then parse e.g. meta.xml to get the title and e.g. content.xml to get the document's content. You can then add these to the Lucene index, typically using one Lucene field per property.
