A quick scan through them seems to show that the various converters have varying success but none are really completely there yet. It looks like I'll just have to suffer with the Office 2007 abomination a little longer, until Ooo-3.x does decent exports. This is not really one of those things I'm willing to fiddle with and spend time on. It's *much* more fun getting KDE running on my gf's XP notebook for example :-) -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
