Overview</a></p>
<h1>w2latex</h1>
<p>last update: July 28, 1998</p>
<p>written in C. (C compiler necessary.) Actually converts RTF to LaTeX. <br>
The Word document must first be saved to disk in RTF format. </p>
<p>Advantages: <br>
Converts text elements and formula fields. <br>
Converts nearly all special characters of the basic TrueType fonts (Arial,
Courier New, Times New Roman) I personally made some changes to additionally
support German left quotes and a few other special characters. </p>
<p>Disadvantages: <br>
Does not convert the document structure (i.e. headings are not recognised as
such). <br>
Does not handle other fields, equation editor objects, graphics. Table handling
is rudimentary (conversion of table cells to minipages, but problems with
borders). <br>
It only handles RTF versions up to WinWord 2, not yet WinWord 6. </p>
<p>Can be found on all CTAN sites, dir .../support/w2latex <br>
German version is in dir .../support/w2latex/german <br>
(The ... stands for a host specific base directory, which often is either
"/pub/tex" or "/tex-archive") </p>
