Apache POI Powerpoint Alternative

I have an application which currently uses the Apache POI libraries to produce Microsoft Powerpoint documents. I need to move this application开发者_C百科 into a more restricted environment which doesn't allow the POI libraries.

Are there any alternatives to POI and interfacing with COM for writing information to PowerPoint with Java?

I could learn and work with COM, but I'd rather avoid it at this point.

Thanks

I would suggest that you look at two commercial libraries.

The first is Aspose. It's a library that works a bit like Apache POI but in a "easiest" way. At my company, we are using it to include charts in Excel file (a thing that is not yet supported by POI).

Ezjcom is probably the library you want. It needs a living Office instance and allow you to interact with excel as if you were making a macro in Basic, but from Java. Watch-out, the documentation is terrible!
