How to download/save project as an open word format?

Post by renategu »

I have finished a bachelor written in overleaf, and need to download as a word document (per request of publishers), how can I do this?

Welcome,

i am not sure this is possible. Have you checked with the overleaf guys?
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Hi,

welcome to the forum!

It's possible using converters, but I'm sure the result would not be perfect and would need further improvement.

I know two ways which produce good results:
  • latex2rtf which produces Rich Text Format which can be opened by Word and saved in Word format then
  • oolatex (which is actually tex4ht) which produces OpenOffice XML format; you can open that in OpenOffice and save as Word format
You may also look at Converters from LaTeX to PC Textprocessors.
