Hello Jeff,
to transform HTML to DocBook5 please use
http://www.dbdoclet.org/archives/herold-6_0_1-68.exe. Save your Word
document as "filtered HTML". Run herold --profile C:\Program Files
(x86)\Herold\profiles\word.her -i <Document.htm>. I tested
this procedure with Word 2003 documents, so if encounter any
problems, please let me know.
Regards,
Michael Fuchs

Sorry, just saw
there was a
recent post about saving Word to HTML and then using
dbdoclet to convert to
DocBook XML. I’ll give that a try.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Converting MS Word
documents to DocBook 5 XML
What’s the easiest way to convert MS Word
2007 documents to
DocBook 5 XML?
I’ve tried using the DocBook roundtrip
stylesheets. They
seemed to work OK if I did the following:
1.
Copied the DocBook styles in
template.dot to the
document.
2.
Applied the DocBook styles to
the document.
3.
Saved the document as a Word
2003 XML file.
4.
Converted the Word 2003 XML file
to DocBook 5 XML.
This worked OK, but it was a lot of work to
apply the DocBook
styles to the document (and there are several documents to
convert). Also, the
resulting DocBook XML file has dbk namespace prefixes on all
the elements. How
do I remove them?
I’m not interested in the roundtrip aspect
of the roundtrip
stylesheets. I just want to get Word content into DocBook 5.
