Subject: Re: [xsl] advice/experience to share on content format options From: Terence Kearns <terencek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2003 19:02:17 +1000 |
I'd like to know if anyone can share some experience on the best way to prep MS Word content for XSL processing.
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect1/N795.html lists some word to xml tools.
My favourite is upcast from http://www.infinity-loop.de/products/upcast/
I use it regularly.
I realise this may depend on the way the Word document is prepared, but since I haven't got a copy yet, I'm hoping it will use Word's structural capabilities -- ie. sections/chapters whatever.
Suggestion, applicable only if the style usage is a mess. Ctrl-A apply style plain/normal whatever. Go through and mark up headers as deep as needed. Do any other styling.
Its so much easier to work with default word styles, then tools can get some level of structure out of it.

Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
