I'm using Ubuntu 16.04. I will need to batch convert a group of .docx files from the command line repeatedly / many times.



The two simple options seem to be lowriter (native) and unoconv (add-on package). I suspect that unonconv is preferred, however, it is not clear why.



Is there a particular feature (advantage) of unoconv that would prompt the user to go through the (trivial) additional step of configuring unoconv? Any pitfalls to avoid or lessons-learned are always appreciated.
