[WEB4LIB] Cleaning up WORD HTML

[Jim Rible]

I convert a lot of Word documents and there are two more steps I follow
after the "Clean Up Word HTML".  

2. File >> Convert >> 3.0 Compatiable Browser (then select the "CSS
Styles to HTML Markup")
3. Modify >> Page Properties >> Document Encoding (then change it from
"Windows 1252" to "Western (Latin 1)").

Any suggestions for cleaning up Word documents saved as HTML?  I use
the
Commands within Dreamweaver but the code still looks very dirty but
better
than it was.  Any suggestions other than getting them to use something
else?
We are mounting handouts written originally in Word onto our web.
