If you "Export" or "Save As" an html file (I think that Word does that) you will get an html file that BBEdit can open and work with. When displayed, your new html file will kinda look like you how designed it.

Easily? BBEdit will open it easily but my experience with getting documents that Word had made into html has been abysmal and frustrating.

First of all, I've seen huge blocks of code unnecessarily filled with CSS style definitions where it was completely insane. Then, the code is generally non-compliant with W3C specifications. Lastly, By knowing some html coding and cascading style sheets, you can probably do the same page with 1/20th the volume of code.

That said, give it a try. Then take some time to learn some html and css if you haven't already. Then return to your pages after a year or so and see what you think.
