Luigi, thanks so much for your patient replies. I have now begun to play with python's lxml. It offers a lot, maybe too much for a beginner. One advantage for my immediate needs that I see is that it offers the possibility to use Python's regular expressions and control structures, so this may make coding easier to maintain and adapt that in the rather clumsy xslt syntax; it may be a big help for the rather messy OpenOffice xml that I want to process. I had already tried w2latex a while ago. I found it very limited and lacking documentation, so I haven't pursued this track. Again, thanks for getting me started! Thomas
