| What is Simple API? |
| ------------------- |
| |
| Simple API, also called Simple Java API for ODF, is a sub-project of ODF Toolkit Union. This is an **easy-to-use**, **high-level** Java API for creating, modifying and extracting data from [Open Document Format (ODF)][3] documents. It is written in pure Java and does not require users to install any document editor on their systems. It is a high level abstraction of the lower-level [ODFDOM API][4]. |
