I appreciate the clarification. Your method is very useful to me since I
frequently have to work with people who know nothing but Word and since
LibreOffice doesn't deal well with some of the poorly formatted DOCX files I
receive. I've been experimenting with some sample files, and your method works
great.
I know this is a lost cause, but I dream of the future in which document
collaboration is done using only text files.
