John,
I have a notion about translating stuff in a mess and could help you with
the translation. But it may be that the conversion
from DOC to formatted test is a bigger problem. Loading the files into Word and
saving them in a different format may not be a
practical option if you have many file to do. Googling for batch converters DOC
to RTF I couldn't find anything.
If you can solve the conversion problem, pass me a sample file. I'll
solve the translation problem for you.
Frederic
