Subject: M$ Word -> LyX (was Re: Hi and small scroll wheel patch
Hello Alejandro,
There is a very good RTF to LaTeX converter, namely rtf2latex2e which
can not only convert text from RTF documents to LaTeX but tables also
and is furthermore able to extract figures and equations (these are then
in WMF format, so you have to convert them to EPS yourself). Word can
export in RTF format, and reLyX does the job of converting LaTeX to LyX.
I think it would only need to put a "hook" in LyX like it is the case
for reLyX, but unfortunately I can not do it myself as I do not speak C
nor C++.
When I tried catdoc and word2x some time ago, they did not have the
flexibility and power of rtf2latex2e. It changed maybe since then.
