Save as HTML Apr 17, 2005

The simplest and easiest way to convert a Word document is to save it as "web page."

A word of caution: Saving a word document as web page (html) inserts plenty of garbage codes into the document which increases the size of resulting html file. You may clean up word (MS) specific code by using Dreamweaver.
Alternatively, you can copy text into MS Frontpage and format it directly in Frontpage which is also prone to increase the size of resulting web page.
