Craig,

  A very easy way to accomplish the basic functionality is to send the .DOC to yourself in Gmail and click 'View As HTML'.  The converter works fairly well.  It doesn't always handle graphics properly.

I have a lot of documents to convert from Microsoft 'doc' format to html

I have found a number of tools to do that but it doesn't really clean
them up very well which means that I will have to do a lot of hand edits
which isn't so bad considering that I will undoubtedly have to do this
anyway to get a common css and common headers/footers, etc.

If anyone has suggestions on best methods for the above, I would
appreciate it but thus far, I see little better than openoffice macros
which do this in bulk (conversions).

More importantly though, there is a structure to the storage...

Base (subdirectory)
  Section 1 (subdirectory)
    Section 1A (document)
    Section 1B (document)
  Section 2 (subdirectory)
    Section 2A (document)

etc. and I would love for some methodology to build a table of
contents/links to these documents automatically - and possibly even
output the end result (the whole enchilada) perhaps in PDF so that I
have other means to distribute this. I have seen many different
publications that get built this way and I don't know how they
accomplish this. Are there some open source tools that can do this?
