Ecma Office Open XML-ODF Translator Open XML Fact Sheet ® Open XML-ODF Translator The Open XML-ODF Translator Enables Interoperability Microsoft funded the development of the Open XML-ODF Translator project as an open source project on sourceforge.net. On January 31, 2007, the Open XML-ODF Translator project announced the availability of a translator for word processing documents. Available as a free plug-in download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/odf-converter, the Translator enables document conversion between the Open XML and OpenDocument Format (ODF) text formats. When plugged into Microsoft Word XP, 2003, or 2007, for example, the Translator provides customers with the choice of opening and saving documents in ODF rather than the native Open XML. Developers of competing word processing programs that use ODF as the default format may also integrate this Translator into their products and enable users to open and save documents in Open XML. Novell has already made the Translator available with its version of OpenOffice. This enables OpenOffice users to open/save documents in the Windows and Linux platforms using Open XML. Other organizations also have translators under development. The second phase of the Open XML-ODF Translator project, launched in December 2007, improved upon the Translator for text documents and introduced the conversion of spreadsheet and presentation documents between the Open XML and the ODF spreadsheet and presentation formats. The Translator is available in English, Chinese, German, French, Japanese, Dutch, and Polish. Other Key Benefits of the Open XML-ODF Translator The Translator addresses the needs of customers such as governments that must support multiple document formats. The Translator will enable these customers not only to achieve interoperability between Open XML and ODF, but also to use a wider range of applications. By enabling conversion of documents from one file format to the other, this free technology enhances interoperability and brings greater choice and flexibility to the market for document creation, management, and archiving. The success of the Translator (more than 385,000 downloads to date) demonstrates how proprietary software and open source software organizations can work together to meet the needs of customers, and how Open XML and ODF can coexist as open standards in actual products to provide more choice to customers and developers. Translation technology promises to enhance choice and accessibility options for technology users, including those who are disabled. The Development Process of the Open XML-ODF Translator The Microsoft-funded open source Open XML-ODF Translator project is being developed by CleverAge of France and Sonata Software Ltd. of India, and tested by Dialogika of Germany and India-based Aztecsoft Ltd. The project will continue to be open source software on SourceForge.net, and freely available to all customers for development or use. The open source software community has shown strong interest in the Translator project. Since the project was launched, it has become one of the 25 most active projects on SourceForge.net, which hosts more than 100,000 open source projects. January, 2008 .

  • E-Mailing a Large Amount of Recipients
    E-mailing a large amount of recipients DO NOT use the “TO” or “CC” field! If you have a large list of recipients you need to send an email you, you should never try sending one large email with all of the recipients listed in the “TO” and/or “CC” field. First of all, the message will likely not be delivered to everyone. Even if the message makes it past our local header size limit, every mail server you are attempting to send it to has it’s own header size limit and can reject your message for exceeding this limit. There are other reasons you would not want to send it that way as well. For instance, by including everyone you are sending the message to, you are displaying that publicly to everyone on the list. Anyone who received the message can easy perform a reply-all and send an unwanted message to everyone. This usually begins when someone replies-all and says “Remove me from your list”. It won’t be long before you get someone emailing the entire list saying “You didn’t have to email that request to all of us”, etc... Basically, it could create a large amont of unwanted email for everyone involved. So what are your options? DO use the “BCC” field! The first option is to include your list of recipients in the BCC field. This prevents the header size from getting too large and also prevents people from purposely or accidentally replying-to-all. The problem with this method is the recipient does not see their email address in the TO header.

  • Open Document Formats As an Enabler of Interoperability
    OPEN DOCUMENT FORMATS AS AN ENABLER OF INTEROPERABILITY COMPARISON OF THE OASIS OPENDOCUMENT FORMAT AND MICROSOFT OFFICE OPEN XML PC productivity applications (PPAs), including word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation software, represent the most important applications to PC users today. Most documents today are created with a word processor, spreadsheet or a presentations application. Therefore, for the purposes of ensuring that the documents can be freely exchanged between users, and that they are accessible not only now but also in the future, it is important that the format the documents are saved in is one that can be fully supported by the widest possible range of applications. Only a fully open cross-platform format can allow for full interoperability between PPAs, and ensure that users' data is not locked-in to specific applications and platforms. OpenDocument Format and Microsoft Office Open XML The OpenDocument Format (ODF) was created to meet the demand for such a format. It was developed as an application-independent file format by a vendor-neutral standards developing organization OASIS, with the participation of multiple office application vendors. On 4 May 2006, the Joint Technical Committee for Information Technology Standards (JTC-1) of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) approved ODF as international standard ISO/IEC JTC 1 26300.1 ODF is supported by various PPAs, including OpenOffice,2 StarOffice 83 Google Docs & Spreadsheets,4 IBM Productivity
