Hello,
almost all the writing I do that is intended to be exported will be
exported to LaTeX. However, every now and again I need to export to
DOC/DOCX.
My query is: what is the best way (i.e. the state of the art) currently
in org to export to DOC/DOCX for text that has equations? I have both
inline maths, e.g. \(i \in [0,n]\) and displayed equations. Is there a
route that will convert these to something Word et al. can process
directly, other than images? Maybe via pandoc?
Thanks,
eric

I only know how to do a rough approximation by means of pandoc:
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
pandoc -f org+smart my-original.org -t docx+smart -o my-output.docx
#+END_SRC
for slightly older versions of pandoc, this may work (there is an
equivalent for the references, I think):
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
pandoc -f org+smart --bibliography=../../References.bib
my-original.org -o my-output.doc
#+END_SRC
I used to have a better solution, but at some point it stopped working.
I didn't ask here, because 1/2 of my questions go under the radar, and I
don't like to bug people with my issues:
To get a working file, first export to odt with Org-mode
(~C-c C-e o o~), and then run this (you can do ~C-c C-c~
on it; make sure that LibreOffice is not running)
#+BEGIN_SRC shell :results none
libreoffice --headless --convert-to doc ./my-.odt
#+END_SRC
For the latter, I used to have
#+OPTIONS: tex:dvipng
A better solution would be most appreciated.

What version of pandoc are you using? My Debian (testing) has pandoc
1.19.2.4 and it does not seem to recognise the +smart bits...
But, in any case, pandoc (without the smart bits) does seem to do a
reasonable job and creates proper maths entities. This is good enough
for me! My once a year pain is relieved. :-)
Thanks,
eric

The best way is probably to generate a PDF with LaTeX
and to open it with MS-Word. Yes, it can do that, and the math import
is quite good (for what I have seen, at least as good as any other
alternative option).

Interesting. I don't use MS Word (I'm on Linux on all of my systems)
but may ask somebody to check this out for me. LibreOffice almost works
importing the PDF generated via LaTeX but not quite. OneDrive (web
interface) doesn't quite work either.
But pandoc is handling most of what I need.
thanks,

Does anyone know of a good round trip/review workflow for word documents?
I'm interested in generating documents and processing feedback/comments,
especially with word document tracking.

A few weeks ago I made a suggestion similar to what you want, see [1].

Write it in Org. Export to Pandoc file pandoc-A.
Export Pandoc file pandoc-A to Word file word-A. Send that to your
peers for review.
Export Word file word-A to Pandoc file pandoc-B.
Get the Word from your peers, the file with changes from their review,
word-C. Export it to pandoc-C
Do a diff between pandoc-B and pandoc-C. Integrate the results into
your original Org file.

I'm confused. My understanding is that Pandoc converts between file formats, so I don't understand what you mean by a Pandoc file. What is the file format of pandoc-A?
Is this what you mean?
Pandoc: Org -> word-A
Pandoc: word-A -> pandoc-B.org
Pandoc: word-C -> pandoc-C.org

Pandoc has their own markup language "Pandoc Markdown". That is what I
meant by "Pandoc". And that was totally wrong in regards to your
question. Sorry my mistake.
You said it right, yes. It makes it easy to diff the "reverse
engineered" Org fils to see what changed from the reviewers.

I appreciate the clarification. Your method is very useful to me since I frequently have to work with people who know nothing but Word and since LibreOffice doesn't deal well with some of the poorly formatted DOCX files I receive. I've been experimenting with some sample files, and your method works great.
I know this is a lost cause, but I dream of the future in which document collaboration is done using only text files.

I'm sorry for the very late response (deadlines). I will check for the
pandoc version and let you know. One of the distros that I use is a
rolling linux. The other one is the same as yours. I would also like to
note that I got the pandoc snippet from Dr. Kitchin's website:
http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2015/01/29/Export-org-mode-to-docx-with-citations-via-pandoc/
I checked, and I am very satisfied with ~C-c C-e o o~. I set #+OPTIONS:
dvipng. You can't edit the formulas, but I don't care about that. All my
equations look fine and the pictures too. I also have to copy my
references by hand, but that is the least of my issues, and I only do it
when the final version is ready. I also get my source blocks right.
I think that the only thing which is really missing from Org as related
to exporting is handling pictures inside tables (a way to create
subfigures). There is a partial solution with ox-latex-subfigure
[[https://github.com/linktohack/ox-latex-subfigure]], but is limited in
the :width parameter. One of these days I will learn LISP and implement
it myself (unless another brave soul goes for it first). Even Beamer
columns can be used to this end, but this would only work for
presentations. I don't know any other way.

Thanks!
I will experiment with this work-flow, but i have one other issue, any
advice on working with existing (word) document templates?
I have to work within templates, so it would be great if i could manage to
conform.
