In my experience, the Omnimark RTF to XML route is probably the most
powerful, but the most work to get right. So if you plan serious daily 
production work, it would be worth investing in Omnimark
expertise. If, however, you need to do occasional Word to XML
translations, want a quick interactive configuration, and are likely
to clean up by hand, then Majix gets you off the ground faster. 

I gave up on the `serious' route, because I found my Word documents
were so poor that I could not automate the conversion. Given that, it
was not worth the really detailed route.
