Redirecting to docbook-apps since it seems more tools related.
I misunderstood the question in my previous response. I agree that a
utility like DocParse is good for a rough conversion into docbook. It's
especially useful if tables are involved. Another one I've heard of is
http://www.logictran.com/docbook.html. Of course you then need to do
clean up and semantic stuff by hand after the conversion, though you
might be able to automate some things with a custom script.
