Hello, I already posted this to the lyx-users list (gmane.editors.lyx.general). I just came across a converter which i wasn't aware of before. - - - citation begin - - - tex2word converts LaTeX source documents into Office Open XML format introduced in Microsoft Word 2007 without any intermediary steps. Emphasis is put on equations, which are traditionally typeset in LaTeX but occasionally have to be transferred to Word to meet requirements set by publishers. [...] tex2word is in an early stage of development. Development has focused on converting tex files generated by the LyX document processing system into Word Open XML files. - - - citation end - - - Source: http://hunyadi.info.hu/levente/en/21-tex2word Regards -- Wilfried Hennings
