Cognidox would not exist without the help of many open source projects. Perl, Apache and Solr are just a few of the excellent open source packages that help make Cognidox a leading document management system. So, to show our appreciation, we've released a couple of open source projects such as OfficeToPDF to help others.

Office To PDF

What does it do?

• OfficeToPDF is a command line utility that converts Microsoft Office 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016 documents from their native format into PDF using Office's in-built PDF export features.

Most Office to PDF converter tools are intended as single-user desktop applications. OfficeToPDF is useful (and unique) if you want to automatically create PDF files on a server-wide basis and free individual users from an extra step of using the "Save as..." command on their Office files. These PDF files can then be stored and managed on a separate server. This can be useful if, for example, a department has a policy of only distributing PDF versions of documents to people outside the department.

OTRS Joomla Gateway

What does it do?

• Provides seamless access to OTRS tickets through Joomla. Note that this is an older project that we no longer provide updates for.
