[Linux] wvWare | blog / bookslope

企業とつきあうことが多いと、どうしても扱うドキュメントはマイクロソフトの「Word」文書が多くなる。もちろん「PowerPoint」も多いわけですが。

そこで、Word文書を汎用性のあるHTMLやXMLにしてしまおう、と思った今日このごろ

ということで、「wvWare」をご紹介。「wv」とはそもそも「Word View」とそのままらしい。

wvWare, library for converting Word documents
http://wvware.sourceforge.net/

下記のようにいろいろとできるようなので、とりあえず試してみるべし。

wvHtml: convert your Word document into HTML4.0
wvLatex: convert your Word document into visually (pretty) correct LaTeX
wvCleanLatex: convert into ‘cleaner’ LaTeX containing less visual mark-up, more suitable for further use and LyX import. Work in progress
wvDVI: converts word to DVI. Requires ‘latex’
wvPS: converts word to PostScript. Requires ‘dvips’
wvPDF: converts word to Adobe PDF. Requires ‘distill’ from Adobe [Someone do a pdflatex or pdfhtml version :-)]
wvText: converts word to plain text. Textually correct output requires ‘lynx.’ For poor output, this doesn’t require anything special.
wvAbw: converts word to Abiword format. (Far better just to use Abiword.)
wvWml: converts word to WML for viewing on portable devices like WebPhones and Palm Pilots.
wvRtf: a basic version exists
wvMime: can be plugged as a MIME helper application into your browser/mail client; presents the document on-screen inside GhostView, while all intermediate files generated go into the /tmp directory.
