I have tried to reproduce this bug with wv 1.2.4. I tried to convert your MS Word file with "wvText <input file> <output file>" and "wvPDF <input file> <output file>". I received corrupt output as you did, I am attaching an archive with the files.
At first, wvPDF told that it needed a program called "latex" and quited. There is no package with that name, so I installed texlive to get some TeX tools. That brought the application "latex" too. After that, wvPDF converted the file with following error message: sh-3.2$ wvPDF Workshop\ 1\ -\ Contents.doc contents.pdf Current directory: /home/aras/Desktop Some problem running latex. Check for Errors in contents.log Continuing... sh-3.2$ As I mentioned before, a corrupt PDF file was created. The file contents.log is in the archive as well. --- I was running Debian 5.0.7 (lenny) with Linux Kernel 2.6.26-2-686.
