Easy Way for Sharing OpenOffice.org Documents?

Posted by Cliff on Tuesday December 7, 2004 @03:07AM from the lite-and-simple-viewing dept.

rekrutacja asks: "I'm trying to find easy way for reading OpenOffice.org documents in places where you can't (or don't want to) install the full OOo suite. I found an on-line reader, but I would like something for offline viewing. There is a Java-based standalone program that you can download from here, but I can't seem to get it running to my liking. OOo Lite/Reader/Viewer should be easy to install (especially for Windows) and I'd like it to be small enough to fit my 16MB pen-drive. Even a Firefox/IE plugin is better than nothing. Does anyone know of such a beast?"

Why not use AbiWord? The Windows port is about as small as what you're looking for, and it has full compatibility with OOo with the import/output plugins(when the new document standard is implemented in OOo, I don't think even those wil be needed.)
