Provides classes for converting basic document types to/from a  
DOMDocument  object, which can be used by the framework.  
This package provides classes that handle the writing of data to an 
 OutputStream object for the {@link org.openoffice.xmerge.DocumentSerializer 
DocumentSerializer} interface for; as well as the reading of data from an 
InputStream object for the framework's {@link org.openoffice.xmerge.DocumentDeserializer 
DocumentDeserializer} interface. Both these framework interfaces are simply 
converters from server-side documents to device specific documents and vice-versa.
 
Methods in these classes are not thread safe for performance reasons. Users of these classes will have to make sure that the usage of these classes are done in a proper manner. Possibly more on this later.
