Translating a Word Doc to HTML - Easy way out?

[Casanova]

I know this is going to sound like I'm being lazy, or this is a really dumb question, but I don't if there is an easy way out of this....

I have a word document with ALL different texts/fonts/formats and I need to turn it into HTML so that I can post it on shareasale for our affiliate program. Is there an easy way to do this or do I have to re-do the whole thing word for word with HTML?

Thanks for the help! ;)

Microsoft Word?
OpenOffice Writer?
Save as->HTML document?

That works, sort of. Fonts and formatting not supported in browsers (which will usually be every browser, including IE) will get trashed and the HTML code produced will be exceptionally bloated with meaningless (to browsers) tags and style that only Word can understand but, sometimes it is easier than a rewrite. What I often do is use the save as HTML feature, and then rewrite from scratch. Sounds complicated but, it often yields the best results with the least effort over either accepting the trashy conversion 'as is' or trying to rewrite with no idea what the HTML version could look like.

I agree with John. The export-as-(X)HTML feature in OpenOffice is a little better than that of Word, but it's still not going to do the job very well. Best to rewrite from scratch.

Uhum- so do I, with the difference that I wrote regexp macro for nedit to do cleanup for me.
