I assume that you use the non-chunked HTML stylesheets with
CSS to make
the WORD docs?

We deliver DocBook documents in MS Word format.  Some parts
of the
audience need the content in MS Word so we publish DocBook
> HTML > MS
Word.  It's a one-way conversion.  We do not take changes
made in MS
Word and try to push them into the DocBook source.

This is a relatively recent publishing requirement so we are
still
solving small problems.  Overall, the technique we are using
works well
and the resulting MS Word files are in good shape.

I apologize for the long delay in answering.  I've been
having trouble
with my spam filter.

Yes, I use the non-chunked HTML stylesheets to make the HTML
files that
I convert to MS Word files.
