The Python tool automates office document conversions from the command line using OpenOffice.org. It is free to use, making it a user-friendly solution for document conversion tasks.
PyODConverter is an efficient and free command line script that converts documents from one office format to another with ease. It works by connecting to an OpenOffice.org instance via Python-UNO bridge, allowing hassle-free document conversion in a matter of seconds.
This script is essentially a simplified version of the command line tool accompanying JODConverter. It is ideal for users who prefer a simpler alternative to JODConverter, especially when used solely from the command line (as opposed to as a Java library or web service).
However, it is important to note that PyODConverter requires OpenOffice.org to be running as a service and listening on port (by default) 8100. Nevertheless, starting OpenOffice.org as a service from the command line is a straightforward process: simply enter "soffice -headless -accept="socket,port=8100;urp;".
