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?
