Convert Excel files using Apache POI

807580Jul 31 2009 — edited Oct 7 2009

Hi,

I was trying to use open source or free API to convert MS Excel files (XLS, not XLSX) into PDF & CSV.
So the first choice was Apache POI but I did not find the way through the API.

Second choice(over searching) was an utility from http://www.dancrintea.ro/xls-to-pdf/ which can convert Excel to pdf, html, csv,
it does the job, but it needs OpenOffice and OpenOffice needs also an X server(if you run it on Linux - but I want it text mode only).

Did anyone succed to convert the Excel to PDF and CSV using POI?
Any guidance on this matter is highly appreciated.

Cheers.
