[WEB4LIB] RE: Cleaning up WORD HTML

[Jody Cleveland]

A good point, I guess it depends on how clean you want your code.  If you
save a word document as html, it takes every image, and renames it
image001.jpg, image002.jpg and so on.  Not only that, but if you resize the
image inside of word, you get an identical image, just in png format.  I've
found it very difficult to go back and open each individual file and rename
it something that makes sense.  Luckily, Dreamweaver will change the code to
match it, but it is still a big waster of time.  I have yet to find a
converter of word documents that will retain image file names.

Just my .02

One problem with just doing cutting and pasting of the text.  That looses
images and links.  
The method I finally worked out from everyone's suggestions seems to work
very well so far.
