Support for OpenOffice formats (ODS)

Aspose.Cells Product Family
1

We are users of Aspose Total for Java and we are very satisifed with it.

We would like to expand support for the available file formats beyond MS Office to OpenOffice formats. we are especially interested in Writer(odt) Impress (odp) and Calc (ods).

Can you share with us the plans you have for supporting those file formats, under Java? I have noticed plans for ods in your website.

In case you need early adaptors for your software we would be glad to help

Thanks,

Shay
