wvWare - convert msword documents
wvWare [-c charset] [--charset
charset] [-p password] [--password password] [-x config.xml] [--config config.xml]
[-d dir] [--dir dir] filename
wvWare converts word documents into other formats such as PS,PDF,HTML,LaTeX,DVI,ABW
- -c charset, --charset charset
- word 97 documents are stored in one
of two formats, either in 8 bit windows codepages or in 16bit unicode. The
unicode can be converted easily into utf-8, and the codepages are promoted
to unicode and converted from there, except for the western european codepage
which is always converted to iso-5589-15 if possible. This is the default
behaviour. It in possible to convert into other formats or to force a conversion
to a particular format, it is not recomended as you don’t get a guarantee
that the output will be correct, for instance if you convert an english
document into koi8-r encoding then it will be wrong, but if you are sure
then you can override the default output format using this option. The charsets
that are available depend on your system. Systems using the gnu libc 2 and
above can convert to just about anything, systems that at wv configure
time prove to be inadequate for charset conversion use wv’s internal conversion
formats which are a small subset of the possible conversions, namely utf-8
iso-5589-15 koi8-r tis-620
- -p password, --password password
- Due to heroic work
done by a great team or workers, the wv library can decrypt password protected
word 97 and older versions of word documents given the correct password.
- -d dir, --dir dir
- If dir is used then any created graphics will be placed
in this directory. The default is the directory in which the word document
is.
- -x config.xml, --config config.xml
- Use this to give the location of the config
file, if not used the config file is searched for by first checking the
current directory, and then by looking in the install location, by default
its /usr/local/lib/wv/wvHtml.xml
