I'm trying to see if I can help some Windows users, but in WinXP and Win7 virtual machines and in a Win 7-64 real environment, after extracting the odfWeave examples.odt from the package and putting it in my working directory ("My Documents") where R can see and unpack it, I get "unable to convert 'examples.odt' to the current locale". I've tried some searches about UTF8 on Windows, which gave discouraging answers, and also the Sweave manual suggestions of different options(), e.g., I tried the suggestions regarding useFancyQuotes but without success.Things work fine (of course!) in Linux of different flavours, so I suspect this is a general Win issue, and I'm hopeful there is a simple workaround. The reproducible code is to source("tester.R") from R prompt or else Rscript tester.R where tester.R contains library(odfWeave) test<-odfWeave("examples.odt", "ex1out.odt") and this gives the same message "unable to convert examples.odt in the current locale". For information, changing the file to "simple.odt" does work, at least on one of my systems.
I just tried that in WinXP 32 bit, and it ran without problem. This was in R-patched, with odfWeave 0.8.1.
Which versions were you using? Duncan Murdoch
