    Printing of doc files

    Hi group

    I have noticed that the printing framework in java supports a great deal of files, but not MS/Word .doc files. So if I want to print doc files what should I do? Get a lib that supports doc files? Get a lib that can convert doc files to a filetype the printing framework supports (like pdf)? Any ideas?

    You could try the package from www.apache.org , more precisely the POI
    project group which develops a library for reading and writing doc files.
    Once you make it an object in java, you can use the printing api.

            Try visit jakarta.apache. org/poi/. I don't know whether they support
            printing though.
