LibreOffice not fund on windows

See original GitHub issue

When trying to convert to pdf file, I got an error telling me that LibreOffice is not installed.

Scenario: OS: Windows 7 SP1 (x64) LibreOffice Version: 6.2.5.2 (x64) soffice.exe Path: ‘C:/Program Files/LibreOffice/program/soffice.exe’

The current filter cannot find this path: (Line 497 of file “converter.js”) var _windowsDirnamePattern = /^LibreOffice \d+(?:\.\d+)?$/i;

I could correct it locally by changing it to: var _windowsDirnamePattern = /^LibreOffice( \d+(?:\.\d+)?)?$/i;

can we use carboneoio with out LibreOffice ?? I want to use this in my project , so there any issues if I use carboneio without LibreOffice

Carboneio uses LibreOffice to convert the document into PDF. You won’t need it if you don’t want to convert or if you’ll use another tool for the conversion.

@buster95 If you don’t want library installation, you should use Docker by using our “ideolys/carbone-env-docker” image, check out. It’s a Carbone environment ready to use: node 8 image with Libreoffice installed. Reach me if you need help to setup. Also, feel free to Fork the project and submit Pull Requests to make improvements !
