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 con-
	      verted easily into utf-8, and the codepages are promoted to unicode and converted from there, except for the western european  code-
	      page 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 direc-
	      tory, 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.
