DOCBOOK-APPS: staroffice 6

[Dave Pawson <davep@dpawson.freeserve.co.uk>]

Just installed office 6.

Really disappointed, no 'export as xml' !!!
RTFM :-)

The default .sxw format is zipped xml.
�The text content of the document is located in content.xml. You can view 
this file with, for example, a pure text editor.
By default content.xml without indents is stored at the start of the line 
in order to minimize the time for saving and opening. By choosing Tools - 
Options - Load/Save - General you can change this procedure so that the 
lines are saved with a structured indent.
�meta.xml contains, inter alia, the meta information on the document, which 
you can enter underFile - Properties.
If you save a document with security, only meta.xml is not secured.
�settings.xml contains further information on settings for this document, 
for example on the printer, on the recording of changes, the associated 
data sources and so on.
�In styles.xml you find the Styles defined for the document that can, for 
example, be seen in the Stylist.
�The meta-inf/manifest.xml file describes the structure of the XML file.

example below. Even has the fo namespace!
