POI-OpenXML4J - Java API To Access Office Open XML documents

Overview

Overview

OpenXML4J is the POI Project's pure Java implementation of the Open Packaging Conventions (OPC) defined in ECMA-376.

Every OpenXML file comprises a collection of byte streams called parts, combined into a container called a package. POI OpenXML4J provides a physical implementation of the OPC that uses the Zip file format.

History
