Word2LaTex
Does anyone know of a good way to convert MS Word documents to Latex or Lyx (except for word2tex.com's product?) ;-) Since I dont have formulas in the document i have (tables), I exported the word document to html. Then, I realized latex2html is a one way program. Does anyone know how I can convert html documents to latex and so i can import them into lyx? If there is not a html2lyx that is... Thanks Remzi

Thanks Remzi Have a look at rtf2latex2e (tries do deal with formulas as well). Export to HTML from Word, and use html2latex is a mess in general because the structure is lost (might be good for tables alone, but seems to me that rtf2latex2e does a better job). The only drawback is that you need the end user to provide the rtf (I'm not aware of a free batch doc-rtf converter). -- Jean-Pierre

I tried the word-lyx way but it did not work. It could not convert some parts of the table and gave some errors when I tried to view the dvi...

The only drawback is that you need the end user to provide the rtf (I'm not aware of a free batch doc-rtf converter). That works fine now. Providing rtf is not a big problem since I hace the monster, the StarOffice for such things :) Thanks. Remzi
