doconv: Document Conversion to 'PDF', Thumbnails and Visual Testing

Provides the ability to generate images from documents of different types. Three main features are provided: generating document thumbnails, performing visual tests of documents, and updating fields and tables of contents of a 'Microsoft Word' or 'RTF' document. 'Microsoft Word' and/or 'LibreOffice' must be installed on the machine. If 'Microsoft Word' is available, it can produce PDF documents or images identical to the originals; otherwise 'LibreOffice' is used and the rendering may sometimes differ from the original documents.
