Web gateway source is part of the distribution. You milage may vary
as to the quality and reliability of the conversion as it is not a
complete implementation and has been known to be buggy on rare
ocassions. But there is no other viable option except some magical
hookup of the corel|staroffice|wine + office with some superdooper
macroing to run the conversion, something Ive never seen though.
