It depends on the structure of the Word document how many HTML formatting tags exist after the Save As with Web Page, Filtered option.įor more details about saving as filtered HTML see:Īlternatively it is possible to select the text which should be copied to UltraEdit with some formatting tags in MS Word, press Ctrl+C to copy the text with the formatting tags to clipboard and use in UltraEdit in submenu Edit - Paste Special the command HTML Source. By selecting the Web Page, Filtered option, Word will strip out extraneous tags used by Microsoft Office programs. Microsoft Word has 2 options to save a Word document as HTML file: Web Page (*.htm *.html) and Web Page, Filtered (*.htm *.html). The list of file types as shown in File - Open and File - Save As dialog can be customized by the user via Advanced - Configuration - File Types. On Linux systems there are lots of *.doc which are pure text files. *.doc is just in the list for text files which have the file extension DOC although usually such files are MS Word documents and not pure text files on computers running Windows. But that does not mean that UltraEdit supports opening Microsoft Word documents of any MS Word version stored in binary format. Yes, there is DOC in the list of file types by default. Therefore UltraEdit can open only pure text files. UltraEdit is a text editor and not a word processing application like OpenOffice or MS Word. Or perhaps a filter software that will strip from html everything except those few mark-up codes? Is there a filter or conversion software somewhere that let's me choose which MS Word mark-up I can rescue into UE? The two alternative seems to be either: too much code (MS Word's html export function) or: too little code - the ".TXT" export function, while losing all the mark-ups.
(If one tries it via MS Word's "export to html" function, the problem then becomes all the junk code that then needs to be removed - as everyone knows who's ever worked on such files in Dreamweaver.) What is necessary is some way of rescuing the basic mark-up: italics, bold, underline, footnotes. For book-length manuscripts this can't be done and should really be unnecessary.ĭoes UE have a functioning import filter for MS Word somewhere? Or some other filter? It means all the mark-up is lost, and all the bold, underlining, italics, etc. Is this a bug?Īt the moment, to input DOC files into UE, I have first to output my MS Word files to a. But it's seemingly broken, opening the file in hex mode, and then that's it. The UE "File" -> "Open" menu has, as possible file extension for input, the "DOC" extension.
