Thank you Raphael. 

But this would be the goal of it. Because originally I would like to convert 
from Ms Word to Latex. I found some program that can do that, but I lose some 
formatting. Now I tryed to print the Word document in a file. This was ok, 
and I get the correct formatting (this file is a postscript). And I thought 
it would be useful to convert this postscript to a Latex document.

Against, thank you for your answer.
