+<H3>Distinguish two groups of causes why K-Talk's software doesn't work for me:
+</H3>
+
+<H3>A. General Problems</H3>
+
+<P>1. K-Talk's software uses their own formula editor &quot;MathEdit&quot;,
+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 &quot;tagged document file&quot;. <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 &quot;LaTeX2e Kurzbeschreibung&quot; (from
+CTAN, &quot;l2kurz.tex&quot; plus include-files) I get the error message
+&quot;file l2k2.tex too large to include&quot;.<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 &quot;l2kurz&quot;</P>
+
+<H3>Sample of Converted Files (LaTeX -&gt; 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>
