I have recently used rtf2latex2e to do a bunch of conversions (simply because openoffice.org's latex export was broken so I saved as RTF instead). It worked acceptable for me, but I did have various things to clean up which were easy in vi. Maybe try this: - download the Unix version from sourceforge: rtf2latex2eUnix1 cd rtf2latex2eUnix-1.0fc1/Unix ./configure --host=i386 It may have other issues too, like including malloc.h -- maybe just remove any include lines of malloc. But if that doesn't work, maybe see if that sourceforge site has a mailing list or forum to ask on. Or ask the DarwinPorts or Fink communities. (You may also want to try pkgsrc which has a build framework and includes rtf2latex2. pkgsrc supports Mac OS X, but I don't know if it builds rtf2latex2 on Mac OS X.)
