<section><title>Overview</title>
<p>A common misconception is that POI writes Excel files. POI is the name of the project. POI contains several
components, one of which, HSSF, writes Excel files. The following are components of the entire POI project
and a brief summary of their purpose.</p>

<section><title>POIFS</title>
<section><title>POIFS for OLE 2 Documents</title>
<p>POIFS is the oldest and most stable part of the project. It is our port of the OLE 2 Compound Document Format to
pure Java. It supports both read and write functionality. All of our components ultimately rely on it by
definition. Please see <link href="./poifs/index.html">the POIFS project page</link> for more information.</p>

<section><title>HSSF</title>
<section><title>HSSF for Excel Documents</title>

capability. Please see <link href="./hssf/index.html">the HSSF project page</link> for more information.</p>

<section><title>HPSF</title>
<section><title>HPSF for Document Properties</title>
<p>HPSF is our port of the OLE 2 property set format to pure
Java. Property sets are mostly use to store a document's properties
(title, author, date of last modification etc.), but they can be used
for application-specific purposes as well. Currently HPSF supports
read functionality only. Please see <link
href="./hpsf/index.html">the HPSF project page</link> for more
information.</p>
for application-specific purposes as well.</p>
<p>HPSF supports reading and writing of properties. However, with the
current POI release only reading is possible. In order to write
properties, you'll have to fetch the latest POI version <link
href="http://jakarta.apache.org/site/cvsindex.html">from the CVS
repository</link>.</p>
<p>Please see <link href="./hpsf/index.html">the HPSF project
page</link> for more information.</p>
