Hello TW community,

Following this message from Jeremy in another thread:

*(...) I’m working on a project for a client to convert a 25MB Microsoft 
Word file into TiddlyWiki. It contains 14,800 pages, 6,300 paragraphs, 
8,580,000 words and 46,000,000 characters (not counting spaces).*

*Converting it into a TiddlyWiki yields a 55MB HTML file. On my five year 
old Mac, performance is astonishingly good: it loads in less than 5 
seconds, and I can search the entire file in less than 5 seconds.*
*(...)*

I'd like to share the process I used for a similar usecase: converting 
several word document (~2 000 pages in total) to tiddlywiki by using an 
external software Writage' and a TiddlyWiki plugin : MarKed''.

1. I save the word to a markdown file (.md)
*    This is done thanks to Writage which has the advantage to create a 
markdown file and a media folder with all the images exported from the 
word.*
2. I import this file in my tiddlywiki (by simply dropping it)
3. I set it's "type" field to "text/x-marked"
4. I move the content of the media folder in a media folder located next to 
my tiddlywiki.

That's all.
The Marked plugin supports display of arrays and images.

Optionnaly, I slice the resulting tiddlers in smaller parts using the 
toolbar "excise" tool.

I think this process is quite simple and it is very usefull to have my 
documents in Tiddlywiki.

However, I would be really interrested to improve this process woth your 
suggestions, for instance:
* to have an alternative for Writage (free and allowing batch processing of 
several files),
* automatically set the field type to text/x-marked when drooping a .md 
file to tiddlywiki,
* to have a way to automaticaly slice imported tiddlers in several tidlers 
(one per chapter) of type text/x-marked


Best regards

Eskha
