Hi Biao,

Thank a lot to mention XDocReport in your mail. I would like give some
information about it. You can find XDocReport at
http://code.google.com/p/xdocreport/. By default XDocReport generate report
source 2 source (odt 2 odt, docx 2 docx...). At this step ODFDOM IS NOT
Used. ODFDOM is used for convert ODT 2 XHTM or PDF that we have called
ODFDOMConverter <http://code.google.com/p/xdocreport/wiki/ODFDOMConverter>

THe ODFDOMConverter is Java implementation to convert ODT 2 PDF (with itext)
and XHTML. This project is used by XDocReport (if you wish convert your
generated report 2 XHTML, PDF) BUT you can use ODFDOMConverter without
XDocReport (package is
org.odftoolkit.odfdom.converter<https://xdocreport.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/org.odftoolkit.odfdom.converter>
)

My idea was to give to ODFDOM Team the sources of the ODFDOMConverter
project. But since you wish gives the project 2 Apache, I'm not sure that
ODFDOM Converter will interest Apacahe. Why? Because we are using iText for
PDF and not FOP. I believe that Apache Fondation don't want use iText.

We have the same proble with our DOCX converter
http://code.google.com/p/xdocreport/wiki/XWPFConverter

If you think iText is not a problem for Apache Fondation, we will happy to
give your the ODFDOMConverter project.

Regards Angelo
