Try updating your version of latex2rtf (get the latest version from

 Can someone suggest to me the most efficient method (or program) for the
 conversion from Lyx to RTF, or from Latex to RTF?

You can either use latex2rtf or ltx2rtf (ftp://ftp.lps.u-psud.fr/pub/ltx2rtf/)
I did some testing and ltx2rtf seems to work better.

Note that if your purpose is to create a file that is readable by MSWord,
you can just create a HTML file.

You loose the structure this way, every header is translated
in the same style (among other things). 
The import/export from MSWord towards HTML has destructive features:
 - exporting translates styles as font instructions instead of HTML tags,
 - importing doesn't use styles
Some parts are well translated however (bibliography, figure, tables)
so the hacking of the structure can be done quickly (if needed).
For formulas the only way I know is ltx2rtf.
If you have figures, don't forget to « break the links » (which means
that you put the images in the document instead of kkeping them as links,
following the same logic as « strt » for « stop » :-), otherwise you document
cannot be moved without loosing them.

About Lyx RTF Format

2001-06-08 Thread Adolfo Pachón

Hi all!!

At now, from my Lyx file I can generate:

* .tex (from Lyx Export)
* .dvi (from latex command)
* .ps (from latex command)
* .pdf (using dvipdfm)

But my problem is the RTF format. I use latex2rtf for that and occurs than:

a) If I Export Lyx to Latex and try latex2rtf my_tex_file.tex, system
says: ERROR ...- and no RTF file is obtained.
b) If I delete the lines about Lyx in the exported .tex file,..., I OBTAIN
AN RTF FILE!!


Can someone explain to me this?
Can someone suggest to me the most efficient method (or program) for the
conversion from Lyx to RTF, or from Latex to RTF?

Thanks...
