There is also lgrind which automagically create

As I am trying to finish my thesis and I have to integrate word documents on it, this is my philosophy (c; : - Don't use the same tools for importing to Word and Exporting to Word - Don't be foolish, a common file format (HTML, RTF etc.) acceptable for both systems (tex & Word) does not exist - For Importing from MS-Word, I used Word2tex, tex tweaking and ReLyX and it worked for most of it - For Exporting to MS-Word, use either an rtf exporter (but beware of the rtf version !!!) or HTML or something else, it all depends on your word version (6, 95, 97, 2000 ?) - But as it has been said above, for read-only PDF is really your friend. > Each time I give explanations about typesetting with LaTeX, > I get the question: « What about MS Word ?». > Clearly an effort (once more) is needed by the free software > community to get a good translation from LaTeX to MS Word. > This should not be underestimated, because the look and feel of LyX > is not sufficient to turn MS Word users towards LyX.
