Is there a good hosted service out there that allows users to import either word docs or pdf's that can be converted into html5 forms. There are plenty of hosted html5 form builders out there, but I'm not having much luck finding anything that allows for a simple import of these standard formats. I have hundreds of pages to convert into digital forms, and would prefer to not have to rebuild each page from scratch.
I believe Crocodoc may be what you're looking for.

I need your help because I'm confusing about what's the best way to solve this problem.
The Problem:
I need to implement a solution using mediawiki to construct collaborative manuals and then export the result to one formatted pdf, where people can download it in only one file.
The Cenario:
I'm using liferay wiki's and there I have the option to choose between three language formats, Creole, MediaWiki and HTML.
I don't know what's the best way or the best program i can use to export the results of wiki collaboration to one formated pdf.
The Doubts:
What's the best language formats to use in wiki and then what's the easier way to export the wiki pages to a formatted pdf using css stylesheet?
Thanks for regards.
Probably the most robust and well-supported tool for exporting wiki pages as a PDF is Extension:Collection (which uses Extension:PDF_Writer); this is the one used by WikiMedia Foundation for their sites. Wiki Markup Language works fine with this extension, so you don't need to bother with HTML or anything else.
Due to a new web site and CMS system, I'm dealing with multiple users making content changes to our site. Many of them are trying to copy and paste content from MS Word and other Office products which, as any web developer knows, is a nightmare.
What I'm looking for is a simple offline Word Processor or WYSIWYG editor that I can ask people to use instead of Word in cases where they aren't going to be composing their changes directly on our site.
Basic requirements:
It should be simple to use. I do not need any advanced features. Basically just a word processor that generates valid HTML.
Freeware or open source would be nice
It would be a bonus if it also had a "paste-from-Word" feature
I am not looking for a MS Office replacement as that will never get approved. I need a supplemental editor for our web content editors.
Our environment is mostly Windows Vista/7, though we do have a small base of Mac users as well.
Based on my searches, the most frequent answer I see is NVU, but quite honestly that is too complex for my users since I don't need a whole site editor, file manager, or web publishing software - just the ability to create/edit simple HTML documents.
Yes, I know this technically isn't a programming question, but I'm sure it is relevant to a lot of programmers and web developers.
You can open a WYSIWYG from a local html file. If you don't want to do this through the normal browser, you can do it through an embedded web browser in your application. Check Qt, its a framework that can show web pages (local ones too) using WebKit.
I have what I think it is a very popular problem. I have a legacy app that contains rtf fields. rtf in my case is used only for very basic features (font: size, style, color, ... hyperlinks). Anyway since I allow to paste from word sometimes some more complex things can go in there.
Now rtf is ok, even because with Report Builder I can get reports where rtf is printed.
The problem comes with web application. I am developing a web application that is basically an optional interface for my legacy application.
At this stage I solved the probelm by removing the rtf formatting (I use the TRichEdit trick discussed here).
Anyway ideally I would like to be able to see and edit formatted text in both the web application and the win32 application.
What can be the solution?
In this question I found a link to the ScroogeHTML converter.
But even if I convert there are these points that i cannot reconcile:
Storage: what to store? Currently of course I store rtf.
Should I convert rtf to html every time I show the rich text in web app and then convert it back to rtf for storage?
Your could implement a RTF editor in your web application.

This way you don't have to change the storage format.
Been searching online for best ways to embed interactive spreadsheets into my website. My users primarily use MS Excel and it would be great if they could post their spreadsheets into our CMS with the following features (maybe I'm asking for too much!):
Has a read-only mode.
Easy to import.
Formats and links are kept.
Has Excel functionality such as sorting, filtering, etc.
Supports Excel plugins.
Can embed into a WYSIWYG editor, especially TinyMCE.
I keep coming across Zoho Sheets, but was wondering if the wise members of StackOverflow have come across anything better.
Cheers!
Have you considered using a JQuery solution? It's free and opensource. Check out: http://visop-dev.com/Project+jQuery.sheet
We have a intranet that we have lots of html pages and attachments (.doc, .xls, etc) and we are looking to migrating this to confluence WIKI. Doesn't anyone know of any script or anything that can be used to automate this process as we dont want to do it by hand ideally.
did you check How can I import HTML pages? in the confluence importing faq? there are some options, including a Data Conversion Service company specialised in converting large websites into Confluence. good luck!
This online tool knows a lot of wiki syntaxes.
