wvWare(1)wvWare(1)NAMEwvWare - convert msword documents
SYNOPSISwvWare [-c charset] [--charset charset] [-p password] [--password
password] [-x config.xml] [--config config.xml] [-d dir] [--dir
dir] filename
DESCRIPTIONwvWare 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 16bit uni-
code. 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 any-
thing, systems that at wv configure time prove to
be inadequate for charset conversion use wv's
internal conversion formats which are a small sub-
set 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 direc-
tory 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
