Hi Nick, Good catch. In principle, yes, though I've never worked with libreoffice. We follow a similar path to produce Word versions of our documents when clients require them: Org -> LaTeX -> tex4ht -> html -> Word -> Save As -> lots of tidying by hand. It works, but it isn't a pretty process with our setup. I'm sure folks on this list could do better, though. tex4ht has some switches that help it produce output suited for this path. It was designed to be configured very extensively. What I meant earlier (but didn't express well) was that I didn't know if it was possible to generate bibliographies from keys in the ODT environment. I'm guessing there must be a way to do this (Endnote?, Zotero?), but I haven't looked into it. Tom -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com
