TECWHRL'ers:

For those of you familiar with LaTeX, I have a question. A
scientist/programmer I work with is co-authoring a paper with another
scientist. The fellow I work with is using LaTeX as his authoring tool
and the other fellow is using Microsoft Word. They are having a lot of
trouble finding common ground for the purpose of merging their
documents. We've ruled out PDF because it's a one-way solution; we
cannot return from PDF back to one of the original formats.

Do any of you know of a workable solution to bridge a LaTeX user and a
MS Word user? (Neither will give up their tool.)

Thanks.

-Mike
