This is a follow-up to Converting MS Word .doc to LaTeX by command line.
Do any of those utilities, or any others, have a mechanism to preserve the font when converting from .doc
to tex? I'm dealing with a document in which source code is indicated by Courier font, and all of the approaches I've attempted (e.g., textutils -> html -> pandoc) preserve some of the formatting but ignore the font. I've found no clear way to pull out source code by other means (e.g., regexp).
xetex
orluatex
as the engines, any system font should be available to you for the converted project. I've only done .doc to .tex conversions once or twice (many years ago), but I found then that post-processing was sorely needed! Won't this be the case for your documents as well? In that case, I'd add 'setting the font' to the list of things that will need some extra attention.
