Hi all,

In my first application I've read document content using Alfresco Web Service and apache POI 3.5 and PdfBox libs.

Now I'm developing an action for alfresco 3.2, so I cannot use POI 3.5 because alfresco already contains the 3.1 version.
For pdf documents there's no problem….because I can use the ContentReader inputStream in pdfbox and convert it into plain text (String).

But for doc/docx/odt? How can I read the document content?

Thanks in advance,

Can anyone tell me how to make use of ContentReader. Do I need to include any library?
