This provides an avenue in which to convert Tex and LaTeX documents to Word. The WordPerfect converter supplied with Word will import the converted document and the equations can be edited with the K-Talk MathEdit equation editor which is included with TexPort. Macros for Word for Windows 6.0 automate the conversion from TeX to Word.
Finally, K-TALK offers a conversion product known as "Publishing Companion" that translates Word and WordPerfect documents into TeX or LaTeX format. Equations, tables and most commands are converted. Word 6.x or 7.0 for Windows is required. Publishing Companion converts Word Equation Editor 2.0 equations to K-Talk's equation format used in the MathEdit equation editor and then to TeX or LaTeX. The process is automated through a WordBasic macro.
