Convert Word documents to Clean HTML

Word2cleanhtml cleans up HTML pasted from Word documents. It applies filters to fix various things that Microsoft Office puts in its HTML and gives you a well formatted result that you can paste directly into a web page or content editing system.

Help! Where have my fonts/colours/effects gone?

Most formatting information is stripped out, leaving just the content and the structure (headings, paragraphs, lists etc). This is intentional. The way Microsoft Word adds font and colour information is generally not appropriate for web or ebook publishing. If you are going to use the HTML in a website you should create separate stylesheets that add the styles you want.

Is there a desktop/offline/app version?

I don't have the resources to produce and support a desktop version at the moment.
