I write my stuff in XML and translate it to HTML using styleesheets
(XSLT). The resulting HTML can then be read into Microsoft Word.
I could even create PostScript output if I'd wanted to, but
unfortunately, I don't know PS that well.
DocBook's a good format (XML, but output to PS/PDF/TeX/RTF/whatever),
but I just -can't- get Jade to compile :(.
