Is there a way to programmatically convert Office documents into thumbnails *without* Microsoft Office? I want to be able to generate thumbnails for all documents in a particular folder but don't want to expose my server to the security flaws of Microsoft Office.
Thumbnails are the final goal, but if I had a process that created PDFs that would suffice. An answer to this question would provide a link to a tool that does this sort of conversion. Perhaps with OpenOffice, but not necessarily.
