I'm writing a CGI text checking tool (on a CentOS server) I'd like to 
allow users to upload Excel, Word and pdf files and have them displayed as 
an HTML approximation.

I've had a look at Spreadsheet::ParseExcel but I think a more lightwieght 
solution is in order I don't need a sophisiticated convertion, a few steps 
above running `strings` on the file would do fine.
