Which requires Open Office. Not such a bad thing. I've been looking for just such a tool for a long, long time. Have you used it much? How are the results from a particularly ugly and heavily-formatted doc?

MSWord can have inline and block styles, and macros to limit and mandate the use of certain styles. These word styles can be mapped to XML, so domain-specific markup can be made. However it's a crummy interface and you can't clearly see overlapping styles, so it's only useful for simple markup. .Matthew Cruickshank http://holloway.co.nz/docvert - Docvert converts MSWord to DocBook to any HTML or XML ********************************************************* The CMS discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ ********************************************************* ********************************************************* The CMS discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ *********************************************************
