This is software tool that can convert office documents to Silverlight formats.
Office2Silverlight SDK is a utility that converts almost all Office documents to web-ready Silverlight formats. Besides the usual Microsoft Office documents such as PowerPoint, Excel, Word, InfoPath, OneNote, Publisher, Visio, it can also handle the Open office documents including Impress, Calc and Writer to Silverlight including web-ready Silverlight document viewers. It lets you meet the needs of all your imaging and conversion related development projects. What the conversion really buys for you is the ability to share documents over the web very easily. When you want to build an application with these features, you are going to need this development kit. The kit supports the out of browse or the OOB mode. The kit brings three kinds of Silverlight viewer that give you a scroller, book or a slideshow kind.
You would be able to create a viewer in the EXE format or in HTML format so that besides the web, if you wanted to distribute the content through CD/DVD that is possible too. Supporting features such as thumbnails of the content, paging, zoom and full screen viewing are supported. Integrating it and creating a heavy duty batch processing tool on your server would be straightforward to do. No virtual printer technology here. The Office2Silverlight SDK has a command line solution with .NET Remote support. Developers can easily add conversion capabilities into their websites, servers and desktop applications. The integration effort is made simpler by the commented application samples and the sample source code in VB.NET, C# and ASP.NET.
