I guess I was using an outdated version of latex2rtf (I used the one in MacPorts, with tetex) because I cannot make the svn version fail now. IIRC there was a problem when specifying punctuation other that the default in \bibpunct. latex2rtf used to always output (SomeName, 2000; SomeOtherName, 2004) instead of what was specified in bibpunct. Anyway, that seems fixed now, which is a good thing. >> - it does not support utf8 coded documents > > Use the version from latex2rtf project's svn.

I usually rely on utf coded characters for accents only (I try to use latex code for other symbols) and it seems to work fine indeed. That's another great news. >> - the equations are converted to pictures (in the best cases) > > Really?

Current svn apparently converts latex equations to rtf indeed but, when they get a bit interesting (sums, fractions etc.) I cannot view them in either TextEdit, Pages or even NeoOffice. While thats not surprising for TextEdit and Pages, I would expect NeoOffice to be better. I seems I'll have to install MS Word in the end. Gasp. Thanks for pointing the improvements in the latest version.
