As long as you define the mapping rules from the Word formmating properties to HTML, your Perl script could read the Word document using the Win32::OLE module, finds the formmating properties for each Word element, and applies your mapping rules to generate HTML. But since Word formmating is much richer than HTML, it can become quite complex very quickly in finding all the formmating properties.
I experimented with this before. But I stayed at and above the block/paragraph level, and simply dumped out them out into a POD-formatted text file. I then used the pod2html utility to convert the POD file to HTML. You lose a significant amount of formmating. But you may be able to live with that.

I do not want to use MS word to save it as HTML file. I want to use a Perl script/module that can be used to do this in a better controlled way (adding additional variables/text into the original document). thanks, -Masthan. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Tree [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 8:19 PM To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: RE: MS Word to HTML converter In a script? -----Original Message----- From: Avi Smith-Rapaport [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 06 December 2001 14:47 To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: RE: MS Word to HTML converter save as -----Original Message----- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 8:51 AM To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: RE: MS Word to HTML converter Isn't that function built into word?
