As others have said, one doesn't always know where a manuscript will end up when you start writing. Or you may be working with a collaborator who insists on using Word. And so on. For what it is worth, I have had *much* better luck converting Latex to Word using tex2word (http://www.chikrii.com/) than with latex2rtf, html conversion, and so on. Of course, this is neither free nor open-source, but (for me) the time I save going this route is worth the expense. ...dave case
