I have posted an inquiry about the status of oolatex on the latex list, I'll write the wiki page as soon as I get an answer back. There may be issues with it I am not aware of, and my successful procedure involves downloading the script from the svn repository. BTW, I have tried converting again the (50,000 words) book I mentioned in another thread and it worked, although a bit less smoothly. Tex4ht seems to have issues with the memoir class. Switching to standard book solved the issue, even though it meant doing a bit of formatting on the word/libreoffice side (converting footnotes to endnotes and splitting them by chapter). These issues may be solved with further study of Tex4ht (which is definitely not thateasy to configure, at least not for me) Cheers, S. -- __________________________________________________ Stefano Franchi Associate Research Professor Department of Hispanic Studies Ph: +1 (979) 845-2125 Texas A&M University Fax: +1 (979) 845-6421 College Station, Texas, USA stef...@tamu.edu http://stefano.cleinias.org
