SXC Viewer - Open StarOffice Calc Files on Android

SXC is the spreadsheet format of StarOffice Calc, also used by early OpenOffice.org releases. It stores sheets as XML and preceded the OpenDocument ODS format. Offices that ran these suites in the 2000s still hold archives of budgets, price lists and reports saved as .sxc files.

Modern phones cannot open them, which is a problem for any Android app that shows archived company documents. GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud handles the format instead: the REST API processes an SXC workbook on the server and returns each sheet as HTML, PDF, JPG or PNG, so old spreadsheets appear next to current files. Password-protected documents are accepted, and a single sheet can be requested by itself.

Developers integrate with the Java SDK for Android, available through Maven and Gradle with ready code samples. Navigation, zoom and thumbnails let users move through multi-sheet workbooks, and the API Explorer plus the free trial make it simple to test with real archive files.

Anyone else can open an SXC workbook in the free online GroupDocs.Viewer app, which needs nothing but a browser tab. More than 180 formats are covered in total.
