I just tried htlatex on my ISWC paper, and the result was, to put it mildly, horrible. (One of my AAAI papers was about the same, the other one caused an undefined control sequence and only produced one page of output.) Several parts of the paper were rendered in fixed-width fonts. There was no attempt to limit line length. Footnotes were in separate files. Many non-scalable images were included, even for simple math. My carefully designed layout for examples was modified in ways that made the examples harder to understand. The footnotes did not show up at all in the printed version. That said, the result was better than I expected. If someone upgrades htlatex to work well I'm quite willing to use it, but I expect that a lot of work is going to be needed. peter
