After half an hours playing its a fair, quick and dirty
method of getting word into docbook.
Usual trick.
Open the document,
Select all, style as normal text.
Run through it and mark up headings, normal text,
lists, etc.
Save as docbook.
Only error when validated was the missing
<title> tag between the wrapper and <section> wrapper.
What I might have wanted as literallayout came out as line
seperated para's.
Layout maintained by nbsp insertions.
Images are missed out altogether.
Rest validated OK
Its workable, and one up on doing a full markup.
