Cleaning up Word HTML

[Cindy L. Chick]

Thanks for this!  Just one other question.  I almost always want to
remove all <span> &/or font tags.  I went through this process, but
though it cleaned things up, it kept the fonts.  Is there any way to
clean up all the Word fonts other than a simple search and replace?  I
want to keep the <i> and <b>.

Ah, remember when this was all so much simpler.  :-)

Found an even better solution:

1.Install the Microsoft Office HTML Filter 2.0. from
http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/Msohtmf2.aspx

2. Use the Export to Compressed HTML under the file menu.

3. Open in HomeSite and run the HTML Tidy Codesweeper.

4. Save and open in Dreamweaver. 

5. Commands: do the Word HTML cleanup

6. Apply my template and save.

Works wonders and very quickly.
