TexPort

last update: July 24, 2001

Note: I tried an older version of this product, but it turned out not to be useful for me. Reasons: see here. Maybe the current version does much better, but it's too expensive for me.

History:

In 1994 the first Version of LaTeX2rtf was written by a group of students of the Viena University supervised by Ralf Schlatterbeck. They took up a LaTeX parser and added most of the functionality to the program. In 1995 work continued with a second group of students. The result was LaTeX2rtf Version 1.5.

Unfortunately, two different persons started further development of that program, not knowing of each other:

• In 1997, Daniel Taupin started updating this converter. He added e.g. the feature to convert equations to bitmaps by invoking the TeX engine. However this required the emTeX distribution (for DOS) which is no longer supported.
• In 1998, Georg Lehner found the reference to the original LaTeX2rtf on this webpage and added some functionality. His work resulted in version 1.8aa. Unfortunately he did not know about Daniel's developments.

In 2001, Scott Prahl started to make some significant enhancements, also including many of Daniel's additions. He is still working on it. So this page is about Georg's and Scott's version. Latest stable release is 1.9.19 and includes all of the features of Daniel's version.

Temporarily I (Wilfried Hennings) feel responsible for coordinating the exchange of development information. But we are still seeking for a person who can act as coordinator of future development, and we also need a person to take over the development. Anyone feeling able to do that please contact me by email to texconvfaq "at" gmx.de.

We got a project initiated at sourceforge.net which aids in further development. Visit its homepage at http://latex2rtf.sourceforge.net/ (external link) or its project page at http://sourceforge.net/projects/latex2rtf/ (external link).
