How to convert OpenOffice ODF files to HTML

I have some ODF files with math formulas and I need to render them...or else the boss will fire me (lol).

Please, is there any way to do this ? or they can only be rendered in OpenOffice ?

In OpenOffice Writer, select Insert, Object, Formula and then paste in your code in the lower window. Save as HTML and it will open in your browser

You need to include the formula file into a Writer document (Insert -> Object -> OLE Object -> Create from file).

Then save that document as HTML and the formula will be integrated into the generated HTML as an image.

Sometimes it's better to save the document as a pdf and convert it from the pdf-file instead

Convert with a tool like http://www.pdfonline.com/convert-pdf-to-html/ or http://www.somepdf.com/some-pdf-to-html-converter.html

Open the File in OpenOffice.org (download at http://www.openoffice.org if needed) and use "Save As..." and select HTML as the output format. The Formulas will be rendered to images which are referenced in the resulting HTML.

There is currently no other solution that will render the formulas appropriately.
