Zenphoto as an archive for text documents?

Grenoli

Hi

Is it possible to use Zenphoto as an archive for documents written in Word?

There is no current support for DOC formatted items. Such support would be possible by adding a class plugin that could format the documents.

There is an example in `class-textobject.php` which will operate on `.txt` files. Of course, it would need to be enhanced to be able to format the DOC formatted files. That would probably require a PHP library that could handle the format.

I did hear that from someone on another project before.. First changing .doc to a .txt then zen could read it.

`
$word = new COM("word.application") or die("Unable to instantiate Word");
$word->Documents->Open($filename);
$newfilename = substr($filename,0,-4) . “.txt”;

// the '2' parameter specifies saving in txt format
$word->Documents[1]->SaveAs($newfilena...
$word->Documents[1]->Close(false);
$word->Quit(); $word->Release();
$word = NULL;
unset($word);

$fh = fopen($newfilename, ‘r’);
$contents = fread($fh, filesize($newfilename));
fclose($fh);
unlink($new_filename);
