About
TeX2Word
TeX2Word
is a converter designed for use with Microsoft Word, enabling Word to
open documents in TeX format (this includes any TeX-based formats like
LaTeX, etc.). This gives the opportunity to import existing TeX documents
to Microsoft Word. TeX2Word is based on Chikrii Softlab pseudoTeX technology
and this means that virtually any existing TeX/LaTeX package can be supported
by TeX2Word. TeX2Word has open-architecture and provides opportunities
to customise it for personal or business needs.
Why might you need your TeX/LaTeX documents to be in Microsoft Word
format?
TeX/LaTeX is the de-facto standard in scientific publishing, but many
publishers accept papers only in Microsoft Word format. Microsoft Word
is also compatible with a huge range of software; e.g. Microsoft Word
documents can be published on the Web using, for instance, Mathpage technology
shipped with Design Science MathType version 5.
How do I use TeX2Word?
Once TeX2Word is installed, its operation is seamless. You'll find a three-step
procedure for converting TeX document to Microsoft Word below:
- Start Microsoft Word (if it's not already running);
- Invoke the File|Open... dialogue box and choose "TeX"
format:

- Select the file you want to import and click Open!
And that's all! I told you it was easy!
