NAME
wvWare - convert msword documents
SYNOPSIS
wvWare [-c charset] [--charset charset] [-p password] [--password password] [-x config.xml] [--config config.xml] [-d dir] [--dir dir] filename
DESCRIPTION
wvWare converts word documents into other formats
such as PS,PDF,HTML,LaTeX,DVI,ABW
OPTIONS
- -c charset, --charset charset
-
word 97 documents are stored in one of two formats, either in 8 bit
windows codepages or in 16 bit 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. While it is possible to convert into other formats or
to force a conversion to a particular format, it is not recommended 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. 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 of 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 resides.
- -b name, --basename name
-
Use
name
as the base name for image files.
- -a format, --auto-eps format
-
Depending on whether images of type
format
can be automatically converted to encapsulated PostScript, print "yes" or "no"
and exit. Encapsulated PostScript is required for LaTeX, PostScript, and PDF
output. Currently possible values for
format
are "wmf", "png", and "jpg".
- -s format, --suppress format
-
Suppress automatic conversion of images of type
format
to encapsulated PostScript. Currently possible values for
format
are "wmf", "emf", "png", "jpg", and "pict".
- -1, --nographics
-
Suppress output of embedded images.
- -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
(/usr/local/lib/wv/wvHtml.xml by default)
- -X, --xml
-
Produce XHTML-like XML output (as defined in /usr/local/lib/wv/wvXml.xml).
- -v, --version
-
Print wvWare's version number and exit.
- -?, --help
-
Print a help message and exit.
