Advice or Assistance Needed: Providing MS Word Version of the Chapter #41

Closed dazzaji closed 10 years ago

Can anybody advise or assist in making a style-right MS Word version of the chapter? Deets in emails copies below and sent to all a few min ago...

FWIW: I did provide the chapter in .tex, .pdf and an MS Word format, but I just put the .tex text into a word doc . I was not sure whether the editors or publishers typesetting/editor staff might be able/willing/insistent upon making the style decision and doing the format transform themselves.... turns out they want us to do that!

Original email follow:

Hi guys -

I hope the weekend has been treating you well! The editors asked for a version of the chapter in MS Word format and I was wondering if anybody knows of the best way to provide that? We can keep the style as it appears in the PDF or change it if needed for the MS Word version (the editor finally heard back about footnote/endnote conventions and it turns out the publisher staff just do all that in-house). Ideally there is some automated LaTeX output method... but my quick research turned nothing up. Please let me know if there are preferred ways to do this or whether you would be willing to take on some of the pages if it needs to be done manually.

Also, a couple quick identity items potentially of interest:
1) I'm headed to the NSTIC plenary this week in Atlanta where I'll be advocating using the New Deal on Data as an organizing approach to the identity ecosystem framework. Any suggestions/ideas on that are most welcome! And 2) I just posted a first draft of some thoughts about big data implications for online identity: http://www.ecitizen.tv/2014/01/this-is-your-identity-on-big-data.html No expectations/pressure, but would be grateful for your thoughts or any feedback :-)

Thanks again! See you soon,

Resolved - the publisher and editors are satisfied with what they have now and the torch is truly passed :-)
