Lelag,

I was going to answer not really to my knowledge. However I just printed a tiddler to a PDF file and then opened it in Word 2016.

Its not perfect but it is 90% of the way.

Regards
Tony

I’ve got good results exporting static HTML and then renaming the file to .doc; MS Word will happily open it.

Best wishes

Jeremy

Another option is to export your tiddler/tiddlers to html and then use pandoc to converto to docx or any other of the formats supported by pandoc. When exporting to a Word document through pandoc the tiddlers titles are converted into Word headings; from there you can use Word's outline view to outline/organize your content.

Lorenzo

Hi All,

I am receiving a lot of word.doc files per email.

I would like to drop them into a tiddlywiki, where they would ideally
turn into tiddlers.

Is that possible?

Regards

Pit

Hi Pit

Also I thin I had such a question in the past - and if I remember correctly it is not possible.

But, I think you should open a new discussion for that otherwise the wise folk of Tiddlywiki world might not see your question.

cheers

Pit,

There are I believe dozens of approaches to this, and it depends on your end use of the resulting tiddlers. 

TiddlyWiki does not understand word Documents however; Word can save as many formats, that may suit you, try a few.

If you want to simply include and display the document, perhaps with some minor editing open the document in word and save as Web Page (htm html)
That can be dragged and dropped into your Wiki.

I like save as PDF if I want a reference copy (I will not edit)

Regards
Tony

Hi Pit,

I proposed a possible workflow word -> markdown -> TiddlyWiki in a previous thread :

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/tTA02UXuIxE/sPtuiyewBQAJ


It may be usefull for you.

Repected contributors,

thank you for your helpful suggestions, information, and advice.

I now have a better guidance on where to go.

Probably I will come back for more help.

Thank You again,
