My thought is that I need to convert because I need to use the tex-gyre-schola font, and as far as I know, Plain TeX won't accommodate this font. So, as I understand it, my process would need to be: 1: Write in Plain TeX with whatever font is available 2: Convert Plain TeX to LuaTeX 3: Use AWK to replace the font with tex-gyre-schola 4: Compile to PDF The reason I need this is I could *easily* convert from (X)HTML5 to Plain TeX. If I can go the rest of the way I can make a nice PDF from XHTML5. But I have neither the programming skills nor the LaTeX knowledge to create LaTeX from XHTML5.
