My boss just sent me some documents downloaded from the Web via Internet Explorer, to be posted on an online library site for association members to see and download.
The documents are in MHTML format-whatever that is. When you click on them, they open in Internet Explorer. As a rule, whenever I get downloaded webpages to be put in the online library, I put them in a format that's easy for members to use and that interfaces well with the online library website's architecture. I usually copy and paste the content of a copied webpage into a Word document. I was able to get the content out of these documents using this procedure; but some of the documents will have bells and whistles that probably can't be expressed in Word. So here's what I'm wondering: is there any way to open MHTML documents with any other program (besides Internet Exploder)? Is there any way to make such documents into PDF documents? And, most importantly, will the computers (of the people who use the online library) be exposed to any danger when they are forced to use Internet Exploder to open and read the documents? For once, I'm not worried about copyright problems or the security of the documents themselves-they're U.S. government documents, in the public domain, and presumably safe. --Constance Warner ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
