Hi!
Yes, some of the later versions of Geos included such export-filters (either directly to .DOC or "only" to .RTF). However, only the text was exported.
If you want to export the complete document (incl. graphics etc.), then you would have to "print" into a postscript-file (within Geos) and then use a converter (in Dos/Windows/Linux/MacOS or an online one).
There was also a windows-program that did such conversions (from a company called ascii or asci or something like that). But it also only extracted the text and did have some problems with special characters used in Spanish/German/French.
The Geos-file-formats are more or less just a memory dump. As Geos heavily uses small memory-segments (as it is supposed to also run on an XT or an 80286), it's nearly up to impossible to do a converter on your own.
Take care
