NuxDocument is a Zope product that represents generic documents by using plugins to convert native productivity suite formats to HTML or to plain text.
NuxDocument is designed to run on Linux/Unix platforms, and uses external utilities wrapped in Python "plugins" to perform actual conversion.
There are currently 6 available plugins:
- MSOffice (Word / Excel / PowerPoint)
Needs: wvWare (http://www.wvware.com), xlhtml (http://www.xlhtml.org/) and ppthtml (http://www.xlhtml.org/ too).
- OpenOffice.org (word processor / presentation / spreadsheet)
Needs: xsltproc from libxml2 (http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/) and unzip.
- RTF
Needs: GNU unRTF (http://www.gnu.org/directory/GNUunRTF.html).
- PDF
Needs: xpdf (http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/).
- HTML
- Dumb
Note that the lynx web browser (www.lynx.org) is also needed to run most of the NuxDocument plugins.
NuxDocument is an extension of Eric Barroca's MSWordDocument. It's CMF aware but limited to Unix/Linux-like platforms. It needs external programs to actually do the conversions.
