Word: editable mark up language in word document, LaTeX-esque
When I am formatting research papers, I sometimes run into formatting bugs
within the document. It would be great if I could see ALL of the formatting mark up, like LaTeX or even have the ability to export in LaTeX compatible format. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Hello Devo

It would be great if I could see ALL of the formatting mark up, like LaTeX or even have the ability to export in LaTeX compatible format. back when millions of WordPerfect users switched over to Word, that was a common request (an equivalent to the RevealFormatting command in WP). Alas, Word does obviously work very differently in this regard. You can display all Word formatting characters easily (in Tools | Options | View in versions up to 2003, for instance). But there simply are no control characters per se for, say, a bold word. Of course, you can convert a Word document to RTF, HTML, XML (Word 2003 professional) or take a look into the new 2007 file format directly (which is zipped XML). Based on that, why, I'm pretty sure that the LaTeX community will come up with a converter, in time. 2cents Robert -- /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | MSFT | \ / | MVP | Scientific Reports X Against HTML | for | with Word? / \ in e-mail & news | Word | http://www.masteringword.eu/ |
