[net.micro.mac] wanted: conversion utility Mac Microsoft Word document => troff,TeX

tuba@ur-tut.UUCP (Jon Krueger) (03/14/86)

I'm looking for a conversion utility that converts Microsoft Word documents
to troff or TeX source.  I'd like a piece of C code that executes on a Unix
host, but I'm not picky.  Basically, I want to upload Microsoft Word
documents from my Mac to a friendly programming environment, where a
conversion utility will convert them to something more interchangeable, like
troff or TeX source.  I can already do the uploading part.  Macput and
macget or kermit work just fine.  I need a utility which reads Microsoft
Word format and writes troff or TeX source.

Utilities to convert the other way are also appreciated, TeX or troff source
=> Microsoft Word document.  Also utilities to convert MacWrite document
<==> Troff or TeX source.  Or any code that reads and interprets a MacWrite
or Microsoft Word document.  Or pointers to documentation on the format of a
MacWrite or Microsoft Word document.
