However, I wouldn't want to use wh2fo to make pdf from word docs, that's silly and misses the usefulness of this trick - having separated the style from the content, I can now use the style on /different/ content. This turns word into a tool for wysiwyg authoring of xsl:fo stylesheets; or more likely, just get you up and running with xsl:fo by generating the stylesheet for your corporate docs.

This is old news I but I just saw it today: there's a tool that can
convert word 2000 docs (saved as html) to an xml doc and an xsl-t script
to generate xsl:fo - and from there to PDF.

Very nice trick.
On OSX you can simply save as a PDF when you print the document. No XML needed. Get a Mac.=)
