Re: clean up html document created by Word

Wow, thanks for all the great responses! Here's my summary: - demoronizer (from John Walker) is designed to solve some very particular problems that could be considered bugs. However, it doesn't remove the unnecessary html generated by Word. http://www.fourmilab.ch/webtools/demoroniser/ - The
