| 1 | The Office Importer turns an office document into wiki content: a text document, a spreadsheet or a presentation becomes a Page you can read, search and edit like any other. It exists so that content already written in an office suite reaches the wiki without being retyped in XWiki syntax. | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | There are two ways to import a document, and they differ in what they produce. | ||

| 25 | [[Importing while creating a Page>>doc:documentation.xs.user.base.page.create.office-importer.import-office-documents.WebHome]] converts the document into a **new** Page: one Page per document, or several when you ask the [[Office Importer Wizard>>doc:documentation.xs.user.base.page.create.office-importer.import-office-documents.office-importer-wizard.WebHome]] to split the document on its heading levels. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | [[Importing while editing a Page>>doc:documentation.xs.user.base.page.edit-page.import-office-documents-wysiwyg-editor.WebHome]] adds the converted content **to the Page you already have open**. | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | Both need a running office server, which an administrator [[configures>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.exports.office-server-properties.WebHome]] once for the whole wiki. |
