Sorry to ask for such a sacrilegious thing, but a group of academics here
need/want to convert many LaTeX documents into WordPerfect.  To make
matters worse, the papers are >30 pages long, full of funny typesetting and
equations, and there are many papers.

Because of the equations etc, de-LaTeX-ing is not an option.  I have found
a copy of wp2latex (on ymir.claremont.edu), but nothing to go the other way.

It would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of a file converter from
LaTeX to WordPerfect, or even to an intermediary file format such as RTF 
that Word or WordPerfect can get to.

Your responses would be appreciated
Thanks.
