Hi all,

I'm a little too deep with a Perl script that converts .htm to .rtf on
the fly. I would like to handle headers, footers, page breaks, etc but
the script is incomplete (although it is open source). There's very
little time or $ left on the job so getting into Crystal Reports or the
like is not really an option. I've read many posts re: this subject but
I'm basically looking for a quick and ease fix to the requirements.

- generate a screen version of a proposal
- push 'save as word (rtf)' button
- note that slippery cffile/cfcontent/cflocation is worked out
- save/open file ... so far so good

- I must now insert headers/footers/etc, options are...
  -- word macro (template file)
  -- learn perl & digest rtf spec by next monday ;)
  -- find a better .html->rtf conversion tool in the open source / tag
library world
  -- beg for help!

Finally, my (ideal) choice is to handle this server side ... which will
make the end-user's task easier. Any input appreciated!
Thanks,

Mike
