Hi there,

I like to manipulate a koffice file without opening koffice - yes there 
is a vaild scenario: 

Assuming I use Koffice and the exclent layout features to set up 
(lay-out) a document. Within the doument I place tags as place holders 
like ^adr1 for the first line of an address.

Now there is an other application which holds the values for e.g. ^adr1, 
.. This application should be able to replace the tags (her ^adr with 
its real values) and send the manipulated file to a printer. 

This currently works fine for OpenOffice with PS Documents, but I had to 
learn that the tags get in the KOffice xml-file an absolute position 
and length what is different to Postscript.

So I thought of the scripting features, of KOffice. Is there a way to 
replace my "tags" in an KOffice file with variing strings? And send the 
manipulated fiel to a printer? 

Thanks a lot 
Michael
