Not officially.  You could try the experimental odt backend, load in
libreoffice and save as those.

Thanks. Where I can get this backend?

https://github.com/dagwieers/asciidoc-odf

this looks extremely useful when we have to talk to MicroSoft-world people. but sadly, I tried that and got errors...

ping@640g-laptop%asciidoc -b odp asciidoctips.txt
asciidoc: WARNING: asciidoctips.txt: line 4: include file not found: /etc/asciidoc/backends/odp/asciidoc.odp.styles asciidoc: FAILED: asciidoctips.txt: line 4: illegal [miscellaneous] subsverbatim: specialcharacters,callouts,replacements3: replacements3

so the -b odp expect to locate:
  /etc/asciidoc/backends/odp/asciidoc.odp.styles
but look at the installation, it actually copied the "backends" folder into user home dir .asciidoc:

ping@640g-laptop:~/.asciidoc$ ls
backends  filters  themes

ping@640g-laptop:~/.asciidoc/backends/odp$ ls
a2x-backend.py  asciidoc.odp.styles  asciidoc.otp  odp.conf

what is the correct folder to install and to refer? how to solve this issue? I don't want to make any dirty tricks to ruin out the system default behavior, unless have to...
