I used a latex class to format one of my papers. At the final date of submission I found out they except only .doc format. I am still looking desperately for a latex2doc converter. Anyone here knows about this?
- gnosis 16y agoYou could try asking on #latex on freenode. But, from what I remember, there aren't any. Or at least not any that do a passable job. One sort of hackish thing you could try is simply printing out your resume and scanning it in. Then import the scanned pages as images directly in to the Word document. It will technically be in Word format, and may even look nice when printed (assuming you've scanned your printouts in at a high enough resolution). Though, of course, the text won't be editable.
- bzbarsky 16y agoUnder the assumption that the paper in question is being published in a journal, that might be a bad idea. In my experience, journals will typically take your content and then reformat it themselves to fit in whatever their constraints are (page size, number of columns, possibly starting in the middle of a page, etc, etc). For journals that take LaTeX submissions, they will generally just apply their house style file. For journals that take Word submissions, they will generally just apply their house Word style. For journals that accept either one... see above. ;)
- buster 16y agoThere is latex 2 odt. Might be a starting point.
- pdw 16y agoThere are a few latex-to-html converters and you can import the html in Word. You'll have to redo all your layout though.
- rick_2047 16y agoIf I redo all the layout, the whats the point?
- shufti 16y agoIt's not ideal, but you can upload a .pdf to google docs, then download it as a .doc.
