How to Convert Word to HTML in Microsoft Word

Word is the most common tool used to edit content. Sometimes, if you want to publish content on some static websites, you need to convert the Word file to an HTML file for easy display on the websites.

Microsoft Word itself has the feature allowing you to convert Word to HTML. You just need to:

• Open the Word file.
• Click File > Save As and select a place to save the file. Then, a window will pop up.
• In the window, expand the drop-down menu following “Save as type” and choose “Web Page (*.htm;* .html)”. Please note that the Web Page, Filtered option will stripe some more advanced layout code.
• Click the Save button. 

Then, the Word file will be saved as an HTML file. However, some people report that this method will change the codes, making the file layout changes. In addition, the code lines will be longer, which will increase the loading time.

In this case, you can solve the problem manually through the following steps:

• Open the HTML file using Notepad.
• Find the content enclosed by div code in the body tag and then copy the div part to the HTML template of the website for replace.
• If there are pictures or hyperlinks in the content, you need to modify them manually. Then, you can preview the webpage to check whether the problem is solved.
