title: Trying to port Apache POI to Android
body: <p>I'm looking for a lightweight version of poi-3.8.jar to use it in an Android (private) app. 
  I don't seem to be able to fit the whole 1.7Mb jar in the APK for some reason (and it would be wrong to do so anyway) and since I'm only looking for the doc -> html and xls -> html functionality, I'm not quite sure I need the whole jar file. </p>
  
  <p>I've spent a couple hours trying to figure out how to extract org.apache.poi.hwpf.converter.WordToHtmlExtracter.java in poi/hwpf/converter but it looks like it's using a lot of other stuff. Even if this doesn't really surprise me, I was thinking that maybe someone here would know which packages I can get rid of to make the jar smaller. I'll be glad to spend more time on it, unless someone here tells me it's a waste of time and that EVERYTHING in the sources is needed to convert doc to html files.</p>
  
  <p>I don't need anything that displays anything, I just need the "simple" doc to html  (and xls to html if possible) features. I don't need anything related to PDF, powerpoint, outlook or whatever.</p>
  
  <p>I'll be glad to share whatever I find out</p>
  
  <p>Cheers</p>
