Re: Converting rtf to LaTex and back from command-line

Yes, I have also used WORD2Tex and it works well (also Tex2Word since I
occasionally have Latex documents that need to be submitted in Word.) I
have the one caveat. I recently switched machines and got no help
whatsoever from  Chikrii in overcoming some problems with installing on
Word 2013 and Windows 7. - though they had been helpful with some issues in
the past.
