for editing ODF files from Java there is also the ODF Toolkit's ODFDOM
library, now an Apache Incubator project.  it is much easier to use and
more reliable than LO, but it only offers very simple document model
operations, e.g. for text documents, there is no layout so it is not
possible to update page number references, and for spreadsheet
documents, there is (AFAIK) no formula evaluation engine, and also it
handles only ODF format, no conversion to/from anything else.
