If you really need to interact with openoffice one possibility is to use the 
java package from octave forge and to interact with oo via uno (universal 
network objects). The benefit is this is a platform independent solution.

The question remains if you really need to go this way and if it is not easier 
to use the graphic capabilities which are available in octave.
