Anyone got any suggestions about converting an Indesign doc (magazine) to word (text only)? Apart from "don't"....?
Have tried converting pdf to word but if text is on an image it makes an image.

as far as I know you can't export the whole doc--only "stories" within it

Ok - how do we go about doing that then?
Sounds lees painful than copy and pasting every wee thing.

The hard way – make a PDF or a tiff, put it in the background and do your typesetting over it. I've had to do this when making letterhead/fax templates for people's stationery.
- no - we want to get just the text - for making a pure text version at 12pt Arial.********

Ok - for future info - I found a script to export all storied into one text file. You can get it at http://blogs.adobe.com/indesignc…
If its a particularly long doc - works best to chop it up before you run the script.
