I have Quill View - unfortunately, it is not easy to convert Text 87 files to any format without losing all of the formatting information.

Interestingly, although the output to PDF apepars to work ok, when you then try to use a Windows tool to convert PDF to HTML, some either just output the text as an image (not much use), or they apply formatting to each individual word, in order to put them in the same place on the screen!

No wonder there are more PDF conversion tools out there than the other way around

Rich, I don't know anything about Text87, but if you can save the files in 
Text87 as Quill documents then you can use a free program I found somewhere on 
Dilwyn's site that actually came with other QL software. It is called Quill 
View it is windows based and you drop Quill documents in to the icon and it 
displays them in HTML formatted as well. If you want to go this route I will 
try and find out where from or alternatively I can send it to you.

   Subject: [Ql-Users] Outputting from QPC to HTML


   I have a few documents (a fair size) which were written in Text 87.

   Using QPC + QPCPrint, I can output them to PDF, but ideally I would like
   to get them into HTML or another format suitable to put on the web.

   Does anyone have suggestions as to the best way of achieving this?
