I once had to do an assignment for a college class wherein the assignment specified it be submitted in MS Word format. What i did was write it in LaTeX, convert that to PDF, convert the PDF to images (1 per page), and then import the images into Word. (I'm not saying that's the *best* path from LaTeX to Word, but it was the first one i thought of that i could make work.) The resulting document was astonishingly large. But it met the requirements as they were written. I turned in the monstrous Word document and got full credit for it. I also complained to the professor about requiring Word documents, and for the next semester the format requirement was changed to PDF. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dan Ramaley Dial Center 118, Drake University Network Programmer/Analyst 2407 Carpenter Ave +1 515 271-4540 Des Moines IA 50311 USA
