I am trying to use Openoffice on a, Mac without the UI, to convert documents to PDf format. I cannot install X11 on my system, therefore I need to use Aqua. Since I am unfamiliar with OSX, I have a few question. For sake of clarity, I will number my questions:

1) Is Calc available on OpenOffice Aqua? I installed OpenOffice Aqua, but I only seem to be able to access Writer.

2) How do i do an unattended installation? How do I specify what compnents to install? On Windows, I do it like this:
setup -qn SELECT_WORD=0 SELECT_EXCEL=0 SELECT_POWERPOINT=0 ADDLOCAL=gm_Root,gm_Prg,gm_r_Files_2,gm_r_Files_3,gm_r_Files_4,gm_r_Files_5,gm_r_Files_6,gm_r_Files_7,gm_r_Files_8,gm_r_Files_9,gm_r_Fonts_OOo_Hidden,gm_p_Wrt_Bin,gm_p_Calc_Bin

3) Where are the macros stored? On Windows, they are stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\OpenOffice.org2

4) How do I run a macro from the terminal?


Thanks for all your help!

I'm not sure you can run the Aqua version of OpenOffice.org headless, i.e. without a display environment.

No idea.

How about :
/Users/<user_name>/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org2/user/basic/
