documentation: Unclear usage for unoserver to convert documents #6

Closed amas0 closed 2 years ago

It is not currently clear from the README how one uses the unoserver script to actively convert office documents. Usage only covers starting the server from the command line but not how one passes files for conversion to the server. This is more obvious in unoconvert, where infile and outfile are clear arguments.

It would be helpful for users if that usage information were included in the documentation.

You pass files to unoconverter, which passes files to the server you started with unoserver. There are no files to pass directly to unoserver.

Yes, unoconvert uses the unoserver to convert.
