crmamx Posted August 4, 2011 Author Share Posted August 4, 2011 That sucks! And I was afraid that was the answer since I've never run across it before. So I took the .doc, had to increase the font size, scanned it, cropped it and displayed it as a jpg. It will do but the quality of the scan isn't that great. Any other ideas on how to do it? Thanks.

trq Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 doc is a propriety format that is particularly hard to parse. There are php (and other) libraries around, but your not doing anything in plain html. If this is only a single doc your talking about, just recreate the thing in html.

crmamx Posted August 4, 2011 Author Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks Thorpe. I tried to think of a way to HTML it but it turned out to be mind blowing. It is a monstrous profit and loss statement. But come to think of it I could have used my WYSIWYG editor with a table. Too late now. Gonna leave it as is.
