Hi, Probably best is to use something like untex to remove any markup and add mark up accordingly by hand. That's quicker for a one-shot solution than configuring any (complex) transafromation tool.
Apart from sectioning and some kinds of lists, LaTeX/TeX's document markup mixing visual and locigal markup does not allow "correct" automatic translation into DocBook's more semantic markup. See also Sebastian's advice: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200007/msg00218.html which partially applies to LaTeX as well, depending on the amount of visual markup. Jens Btw. I had those exceptionally clean Word files to convert, but it was a lot of clean-up anyway. > -----Original Message----- > From: Vladimir Blagojevic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Mittwoch, 28.
