Shekhar Shah, D.R.Kalbande, Presha Shah, Jigar Rudani . Algorithm to access office files on Mobile Phone. International Conference and Workshop on Emerging Trends in Technology. ICWET, 3 (None 2011), 19-22.
Almost all mobile phones available in the market support the programming language Java i.e. J2ME, but majority of these phones do not support the following file formats - .doc, .docx, .ppt and .rtf. These phones allow only .txt files to be viewed. Presently there is no software that allows java enabled phones to view these files. So users have to convert these files to .txt and in the case of .ppt, they have to convert it into an image. Since these files are important for many users, this causes a lot of inconvenience to them. In this paper we propose a ‘Mobile Office’ application which will make it possible for all java enabled mobile phone users to view the above mentioned files. Moreover, this will opiate the need to convert a .doc, .docx or .rtf file to .txt to be able to view them on the phone. We also describe the approach about how the above file formats can be accessed. This approach will enable these files to be accessed in low end java enabled devices with relative ease.
