Using this feature, Sebastian Rahtz has developed a set of files that permits OpenOffice to import or export TEI documents (http://www.tei-c.org/Software/teioo/).  [NB: For those of you not familiar with TEI and its relationship with DocBook, check out Norm Walsh's article at http://norman.walsh.name/2003/10/09/dei.] Is anyone aware of any similar enterprise that would allow the import or export of DocBook documents using this feature? I am aware of Eric Bellot's project (

My OO 1.1 has Simplified DocBook between supported file types. However 
I'm quite dissapointed by this feature. It can't generate much 
structured DocBook content as there is now way how to capture it in OO. 
Sometimes I even get DocBook which wasn't valid. But this feature is 
still usefull, you can open Word file and save it as raw DocBook.
