Home Theater Forum - View Single Post - HELP! Need program to format MS Word doc into HTML

Dave Hahn · 12-23-2007, 11:09 AM

I have a HUGE Microsoft Word Document that I'm going to post on the forum. (It's the 2007 Film & Television Necrology [Obituaries]).

Much of the text in the ms word doc is either in bold, in italics, or in both. I would love to find a way to automatically format the text so that when I paste it into the post, it is formatted for HTML like this:

(b)bold(/b) and (i)italics(/i). (used () instead of [] so you could see what I mean.)

If I can find a way to do this, it would save me hours, yes hours, of posting.

I tried the feature in MS Word "Save as a web page" but this didn't seem to work.

Is there something in MS Word that will do this for me, or does anyone know of a third party program that will?

Thanks in advance!
