Word 2007 to Dreamweaver CS3

I know we’re supposed to be getting away from the older Web 1.0 way of doing things, but since I’ve gone back to the Dark Side of Dreamweaver Development, I thought I would mention some benefits of converting Word files to Dreamweaver
FYI – I don’t ever convert a Word File straight to HTML for standards reasons. Instead I cut and paste content between Word and Dreamweaver. Happily I can do the following.
1. If a Word heading is in the Heading 1 Style, it will become an H1 in Dreamweaver (following the Dreamweaver stylesheet). Similarly Heading 2 becomes H2, Heading 3 becomes H3 and so forth.
If the Word author wasn’t that organized, you can use a shortcut like Control+1 (or Command+1) on a Mac to convert any line to an H1. Can you guess the shortcut for H2? Yes it’s Control+2 or Command+2 on a Mac.
2. Paragraphs now cut and paste as paragraphs (with the P tag). If you don’t want an HTML paragraph right then, then use Control+0 (or Command+0 on a Mac) to remove it in Dreameaver.
3. A new one I discovered is that some embedded images in Word may be transferred to your Dreamweaver site as “clip” images when you copy and paste from Word. So, if you have a Word file with embedded images, you may be able to extract them fairly quickly via Dreamweaver.
Sometimes the old dogs can teach me a few new tricks.
