Q: 

Best way to create programmatically Office document previews viewable in a browser?

Several possibilities come to mind:

  1. Convert to Flash (using a software like print2flash) - but that's very brittle as it requires using a print driver...
  2. Convert to SVG (using a software like svgmaker) - but that requires a plugin in Explorer
  3. Convert to HTML using the Office API - but that's only viewable in Explorer

Ideally the output would not be an image and support text highlighting.
