__TOC__ = AODL (An Open Document Library) = AODL is the .net module of the [[Home|ODF Toolkit]]. The library is completly written in pure C# and can be used to extend your .net based software to support the OpenDocument Format. To use AODL within your projects respectively software there is no need of a deep knowlegde of the OpenDocument Format itself. It would be helpfull to understand what's going behind the scenes and for writing your own extensions, but as mentioned before this isn't a fundamental requirement. <br/><br/> = Main Features = Until now, the following fundamental operations are supported by AODL:<br/> <ul> <li>Creating new documents in the text and the spreadsheet format.</li> <li>Loading and manipulating documents in the text and spreadsheet (not complete yet) format.</li> <li>Initial support for Charts within Spreadsheet Documents.</li> <li>Export loaded or created documents into the HTML format (text and spreadsheet documents).</li> <li>Export loaded or created documents into the PDF Format. (this is in an early state of implementation and only available for text documents)</li> </ul> <br/> = ODF implemented Features = <ul> <li>Reading, editing, creating and saving documents in the OpenDocument text format (TextDocument class).</li> <li>Reading, editing, creating and saving documents in the OpenDocument spreadsheet format (SpreadsheetDocument class).</li> <li>ParagraphBuilder class, this class offer several methods for the creation of often used Paragraphs types.</li> <li>TableBuilder class, this class offer several methods for the creation of often used Table types.</li> <li>TextBuilder class, this class offer several methods for the simple creation of ITextCollections that will be used within a Paragraph.</li> <li>SizeConverter class, this class offer size conversation and size type conversation methods for height and width properties of AODL OpenDocument objects.</li> <li>Colors class, this class offer the possibility to convert any .net system color to the corresponding color used in any document in the OpenDocument format.</li> <li>Support for common styles. These are e.g used by OpenOffice as style templates.</li> <li>Reading and writing of the documents metadata.</li> <li>Full Paragraph support incl. Paragraphstyle and Paragraphproperties.</li> <li>Full Header support incl. Headerstyle and Proeperties.</li> <li>List support (number and bullet) support incl. Liststyle and Listproperties.</li> <li>Full Table of Contents support incl.
