I just wanted to let you know that I have written "odt2pml", a macro to export an OpenOffice Writer document to Palm eReader.
Quoting from my explanation: odt2pml exports a Writer document into a "Palm Markup Language" tagged plain text file, ready to be processed by DropBook for Palm eReader.
odt2pml is WYSIWYG, within PML limitations: format your document as you like, and Palm eReader will show it mostly in a similar way. That includes character and paragraph styles, page breaks, chapter headings, footnotes, images and direct formatting (bold, italic, ...). Tables and text frames are not supported.
You may enable direct calling of DropBook in order to get a .pdb file ready to be synced to your handheld. You may find it as an easy to install OpenOffice extension here:

I'll be happy to know if it is useful for you, and also if there are bugs or possible improvements!
Cheers,

Hi Peter,
I am not sure I understand. What is the difference to the "save as pdb" built in OpenOffice.
