[Doxygen-users] Importing Doxygen Output into Word

[Ken K. <kjk...@ya...>]

 I have searched the lists but I have not found anything that meets my needs.
I have a large word document.  I would like to import a Doxygen output into my document as an appendix.  When I export to a RTF all the styles are wrong.  I have looked at the information on the RTF style sheet and one of the posts suggested pointing Doxygen to the normal.dot (normal.dotm) file.  I tried that but Doxygen gave me a number of errors.
Is there a easy way to get the styles out of word and into Doxygen or a easy way to import my refman.xxx file?
Thanks.

The RTF-Output of Doxygen is not very well maintained, and I read somewhere
that it was already considered to remove it at all. Luckily this has not yet
happened.

But following steps worked for me. Not perfect but sufficient:
1. Open generated "refmain.rtf"
2. Select all the content of the document ([Ctrl]+[A]) and press [F9] to
update all the field functions (fixes "RTF Tags Not Resolved")
3. Search and replace all section breaks (search for "^b") in the generated
parts (replace with nothing "").
4. Copy the required parts of the generated document to your other Word
document (paste as "RTF formatted text")
(actually I did 4 before 3, but it makes more sense this way, doesn't it?)

This way all the styles of your original document should be applied to the
generated content as well.

HTH, Markus
