LabView

Hi, I want to control Open Office fonts via LabView programmatically

[Zizi64]

control Open Office fonts

Do you want to add/delete fonts to/from the Operating System?
Or do you want to create/edit an ODF type document programatically?

I see it now, you have asked it: viewtopic.php?f=44&t=90021&p=425005#p425005

You need study the API functions of the AOO/LO. (API: Application Programming Interface). You can use these API functions inside the AOO/LO (with the supported built in programming languages), or outside of AOO/LO - from an other software.

Use an object inspection tool (inside the AOO/LO) to examine the programming objects:
MRI:

XrayTool:

Here is the desctriptions of the API:
