+
+<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
+&quot;/pub/tex&quot; or &quot;/tex-archive&quot;) </P>
