Hi.
I tried to convert doc, xls file to odt, ods and it is successful in my java application with LO \program\classes\*.jar file and LO installation.
But, I would like to ask it is possible to convert file without LO or OO installation only using jar files.
Is there any way to convert file only using jar files?

Re: How to convert without LO or OO installation
Maybe you can do it with the usage of the online converters.
I do not think, if you can open the binary .doc, .xls files without an office suite pack.
The description of these fileformats was "secret" (was not published) in the past. The conversion feature of the older OpenOffice.org was developed by "reverse engineering method".
The .docx and .xlsx file formats have XML based description method. Maybe it is easier to convert to an another XML based format (.odt, ods) witout an office suite. But the two (Strict and Transitional) versions of the OOXML Standard will cause some difficulty for you.

Re: How to convert without LO or OO installation
Could I ask something more?
I' tried to make a java application for converting xls2ods, doc2odt using LO or OO jar files (not LO or OO installation, only using jar files).
But it did not work when there are no LO or OO.
There are no ways to use the LO or OO java API without LO or OO installation?

Why make life so hard for yourself?
1. Install AOO or LO.
2. File > Wizards > Document converter. Navigate to the folder containing the files to be converted.
3. Uninstall AOO or LO.
All done ... and more quickly than posting here!
If you want to persist, see the Macros and UNO API forum and read Andrew Pitoynak's Useful Macro Information for OpenOffice.org at http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php excellent reference for macros which discusses opening and saving files.
