 A standalone Java library/command line tool that converts DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX and ODT documents to pdf files. (Requires JRE 7)
 
+The v1.7 release has not been updated for about 2 years although it seems quite reliable for me. In response to an [issue request](https://github.com/yeokm1/docs-to-pdf-converter/issues/1) to update the libraries, I have done so with the new v1.8. I now use Maven to managed the libraries in the pom.xml file.
+
+I have not tested v1.8 much so if you face any issues, you can still use v1.7 in the Releases section.

 ###Why?  
 I wanted a simple program that can convert Microsoft Office documents to PDF but without dependencies like LibreOffice or expensive proprietary solutions. Seeing as how code and libraries to convert each individual format is scattered around the web, I decided to combine all those solutions into one single program. Along the way, I decided to add ODT support as well since I encountered the code too.
