Bulk conversion

To use OpenOffice.org to convert a lot of files, click File > Wizards > Document Converter.

Before doing a bulk conversion of files, think about whether it is really necessary. Read this document right through to get an appreciation of the limitations of the conversion process.

Note

Converting a lot of files can take a long time. I recommend you check for sufficient disk space first, and start converting when the computer is not going to be used for a while. In general, OOo files take up less space than Microsoft Office files, but to be safe you might allow for the same amount of space for the converted files.
