Hi all,

I am creating a website where we have to convert .odt documents to PDFs
and save to database (MySql : BLOB).

I am at a point where I upload .odt document (which gets saved to a
fixed location on the disk) and then convert that document to PDF using

xStorable.storeToURL(sStoreFileUrl.toString(), storeProps);

The PDF again gets stored to the disk.

Then I fetch those files from those fixed locations and save to the
database.

I want to avoid all these disk accesses and save the PDF file to the
database as soon as it is generated.

Any suggestions will be helpful.

Thanks in advance..

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but why do you want to store as a
BLOB in the DB? Could you put the files in a file system, and just
store the reference to them?
