Just for you information I plan to considerablly improve the MS
Word Importer (I hope) and the RTF import/exporter by the time of the 2.0
release. Of course the import/exporters of abiword will be continuously
tweaked forever.
My target improvements for the MS Word import are: 1 Headers/footers 2. Footnotes 3. Endnotes 4. Various table/cell parameters.
For RTF import/export many table/cell properties, Footnotes/endnotes.
I hope someone else will do revision marks and hidden text.
This reminds me. Are table of contents a possible item?
Headers/Footers, Endnotes, and Table of Contents conversion are the only glaring items I notice so far. Well, amost. I know right now abiword supports conversion of .Doc files with images inside, but I'm having a real hassle figuring out how to enable that feature. When I convert files with embedded images I get a debug message that the DOM contains no image data. If I were at my development machine I would attach the exact output.
