Icon

HTMLToWord is an open source project from SoftArtisans. It can be downloaded from SourceForge.net.

The following table lists the HTML tags that HTMLToWord explicitly supports.

The contents of HTML tags not listed in the table below (or custom XHTML tags in your document) will be inserted into the document as text. You can control this default behavior by setting the AcceptUnknownTags and IncludeContentsOfUnknownTags properties found in the InsertHTMLProperties property container and by implementing the InsertDelegate and FormatDelegate delegate methods.
