How do you bring Word files into PBWiki 2?

I have about 50 multi-page MS Word files that I need to bring in to PBwiki 2, retaining links and basic formatting. I am surprised that there appears to be no way to do this?!? I'm hoping that someone will tell me that there's something I missed.

I've tried copy/paste, but none of the formatting is retained and it takes way too long to create bulleted lists, redo hyperlinks, add bold text, etc. I've tried exporting the Word file to HTML, but I get all the Word garbage.

Perhaps someone can point me to a utility that will take a Word file and return clean HTML I can paste into PBWiki? I can't be the only one with this problem.

I’m frustrated

Sorry about that. We do strip all the stuff out of a paste mostly because many posts on websites and in word processors will "break" a pbwiki page.

There are other ways to deal with using Word in a website. See these articles for more info about cleaning up Word docs for web publishing.
