Re: [xsl] Converting XML into ODT document to print as paper

My word2dita transformation framework 
(https://github.com/dita4publishers/org.dita4publishers.word2dita) is the 
inverse of The Wordinator--it takes DOCX XML, generates a simple intermediate 
format (Simple Word Processing XML) and then applies a transform using a 
style-to-tag mapping configuration file to generate DITA XML, from which you 
can generate any number of outputs using your favorite DITA processor (i.e. 
DITA Open Toolkit, Oxygen Chemistry, Adobe FrameMaker, etc.). It could be 
adapted to generate other XML formats (it's a multi-phase process). It's 
packaged as a DITA Open Toolkit plugin, but that’s just for convenience--it's a 
standalone XSLT framework with no direct dependency on Open Toolkit.

There are already tools that will preview a Word document and they must be 
using POI or something like it--I'd look for POI-based tools that render 
DOCX--surely somebody's already done it.

Cheers,

E.

    This one is not open source nor freeware, but is an amazingly good product

    I came across above link earlier as well, but its price seems relatively 
expensive & therefore difficult to pursue.

    Is the following possible, as an opensource & freeware solution?
    First convert word file into word's standard XML serialization, and then 
convert that XML serialization to pdf.
