General Problems</H3> + +<P>1. K-Talk's software uses their own formula editor "MathEdit", +which is incompatible with Microsoft's equation editor. Therefore if I convert +a LaTeX file to word, only users having K-Talk's MathEdit are able to use the +converted file.</P> + +<P>2. On the PC wordprocessor side, K-Talk's software primarily uses the +WordPerfect 5.1 format. MS Word users must install extra macros for conversion +to a "tagged document file". <BR> +These macros however are written for Word6 and need some dlls belonging to +word6 which I don't have because I have word7(95). So I could not get them +running.</P> + +<P>3. Capacity: on converting the "LaTeX2e Kurzbeschreibung" (from +CTAN, "l2kurz.tex" plus include-files) I get the error message +"file l2k2.tex too large to include".<BR> +As LaTeX is intended for large documents, a professional converter should be +able to convert large documents!</P> + +<H3>B. Localization Problems</H3> + +<P>1. In addition to being not compatible with MS word versions later than +word6, the word macros need to be localized if one doesn't have the English +version of Word.</P> + +<P>2. TexPort doesn't recognize German umlauts used in german.sty - see the +converted example "l2kurz"</P> + +<H3>Sample of Converted Files (LaTeX -> WP)</H3> + +<P><A HREF="bin/essent.zip">essent.zip</A> containing the files:<BR> +essential.tex, hndout.sty=LaTeX source<BR> +essent.wp5=wp5.1 file converted by TexPort </P> + +<P><A HREF="bin/l2kurz.zip">l2kurz.zip</A> containing the files:<BR> +l2kurz.tex, l2k1.tex, l2k2.tex, l2k3.tex, l2k4.tex, l2ksym.tex, a4.sty, +german.sty=LaTeX source<BR> +l2kurz.wp5=wp5.1 file converted by TexPort</P> + +<P>where essential.tex and l2kurz.tex are originals from CTAN.</P> + +<HR> + +<P>This HTML page is part of the texconv pages.<BR> +Copyright © 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 Wilfried Hennings<BR> +You may copy and redistribute it under the following conditions:</P> + +<UL> +<LI>it must remain intact and the contents unchanged; if you'd like to have +something changed, contact me (W.Hennings "at" fz-juelich.de).
