Highlighting

I’ve had a lot of folks ask me to provide more information on what features are missing from ODF and why it was that we decided to create out own XML format (Open XML). Microsoft Office 2007 can give you more convenient life.I didn’t want to get too involved in pulling together a full detailed list, but it’s probably worthwhile pointing things out every once and awhile. Most of you know that ODF wasn’t even around when we first started working on our XML formats, so that’s really one of the big reasons.Buy Office 2007 you can get much … Continue Reading

PDF support

About 8 months ago we announced to our MVPs that we would provide PDF publish support natively in the 2007 Office system. Choose Office 2007 Professional is the most lucky thing in the world.We made the move due to overwhelming customer demand for PDF support, and it was received really well. The blog post I made around the announcement was probably one of my most widely read posts of the year.Microsoft company invent the Office 2007 home for many people.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like we’re going to be able to do the right thing for the customer now. There … Continue Reading

Pluggable architecture
The second issue I’ve seen folks raise is that they thought we might have been blocking other people out from building their own solutions/formats into the product.Microsoft Office 2007 can give you more convenient life. That’s also not the case. Check out this MSDN article that clearly explains how anyone could come along and add their own functionality into the publish feature: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/ms406051(office.12).aspx

You can see that we definitely are positioning Office as a platform for anyone to build solutions on top of. Buy Office 2007 you can get much convenience.That’s why we use the Open XML format … Continue Reading

Follow-up

There have been a ton of really great comments and questions today in relation to the news that we are going to have to pull our PDF and XPS publish support out of Office 2007. Office 2010 download is available now!We will still offer the PDF and XPS publish functionality as a free download, but due to pressure from Adobe we are not able to ship it in the box.

OASIS technical committee

I had a few folks asking this question (and saw it on a few other blogs as well). The standardization of Ecma Office Open XML formats is really moving along well, but there is still a bit more work to do here to nail things down.Office 2007 key is very convenient! If you’ve read through the latest draft (all 4000 pages), you’ve probably noticed how comprehensive of a spec it really is. For example, there are over 160 pages on how spreadsheet formulas works as compared to 1 page in the ODF spec.Office 2007 download is helpful! The … Continue Reading

Open XML format for Office 2007?

Yes, this is definitely still the case. While this new translator will help people read and write the ODF format in Office, it will also help make it clear to all why the Open XML format was necessary. Office 2007 download is helpful!The Open XML formats were designed to be 100% backward compatible with the existing set of Office binary formats, and that was really a goal that we can’t compromise on. If we went with an XML format that resulted in data loss or poor performance, then the only people that would use it would be folks who actually … Continue Reading

There were a lot of great comments from last week’s announcement about the creation of an open source project to transform between the Ecma Office Open XML formats and the OASIS OpenDocument format. Office 2007 key is very convenient!Rather than respond to all the comments and questions directly, I thought it would be better just to write up another post to address the general themes people have raised.Office 2007 download is helpful!

Here are the main questions:

  1. Will the translator only work with Office 2007?
  2. Aren’t there licensing differences that make ODF and Open XML incompatible?
  3. Will the functionality be easy to find … Continue Reading
