Why does OpenOffice not support the file format my application uses?
There may be several reasons, for example:
- The file formats may not be open and available.
- There may not be enough developers available to do the work (either paid or volunteer).
- There may not be enough interest in it.
- There may be reasonable, available workarounds.
You can go to the User Forum or OpenOffice.org Support to discuss more details and find some help.
