Otherwise, you can convert most MS formats to HTML using OpenOffice All of these will aim to produce output that looks almost exactly like the .doc input, rather than neat, tidy, minimal HTML.

Can any body suggest how to do this? One approach I've had some success with is to take the baroque HTML that Word generates and run it through htmltidy.
