On a second point, "soffice.exe -?" is a little tricky.  Instead of
listing the available command parameters to the console, it opens up a
"Help Message..." window (this is in Windows7 x64).  Not all of the
text fits into this window, and I can't scroll or resize the window.
So in all fairness, it is possible that the "-convert-to" parameter is
mentioned there, I just can't see it in the window.  Does anyone know
how I can get the help info to display properly?

Not sure about Windows, but here is the output of the '--help' command
in linux. I suspect that the same commands are also available in Windows.
