Re: [docbook] Converting from Word/RTF to Simple DocBook/DocBook Article to DocB


If you don't want to mess with the xsl, you can just convert your Word document to a DocBook article and then adjust the document in your favorite XML document editor. This would be pretty easy to do in Morphon. I don't really have much experience with other tools, but I imagine they all work pretty much the same way.

I am not very good at XSL and need an easy way to convert my Word documents to DocBook "book" format. There doesn't seem to be any good conversion tools for this afaik. There does however exist tools for converting to Simple DocBook or DocBook "article".


If I convert to "article", how easy would it be for me to convert to "book"? What are the differences between book and article that would make it difficult to convert?
