title: Is there a library that takes Microsoft Office files (Word/Excel/ppt) and renders images of them?
body: <p>I'm building a webapp, and I need the ability for users to view Word/Excel/PPT files in the browser (these files are stored server-side).  This is to offer them a quick way to preview the document without needing to download it and launch Microsoft Office.</p>
  
  <p>Pretty much looking for the "View" feature for email attachments in Gmail.  I'm assuming that Google is somehow rendering the doc formats into images and displaying them in the browser.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to do this in OpenOffice?</p>
