Does not support writing Office 2007 OOXML format on OOo 3.0 here. |
| 23 |
Only old Office 97-2003 (binary .doc) format. |

I think Go-OO has an odf-converter program that can convert OOo |
| 26 |
documents to OOXML but I don't think there is a gentoo package and |
| 27 |
last time I read about it, it was very raw (you'll lose |
| 28 |
data/formatting when converting). |
