Here's my solution to make pretty (hand editable) HTML ,set $dos for cr/lf and $nostyle to remove all style information:

#!/usr/bin/perl $nostyle=1; $dos=1; while(<>){$text.=$_;} $text=~s/content="Microsoft Word \d+"/content="wordclean.pl"/g; $text=~s/(\r|\n)+/ /g; $text=~s/<\/?o:.+?>//g; $text=~s/<!--.+-->//g; $text=~s/xmlns(:.+?)?=".+?"//g; $text=~s/mso-.+?:\s?.+?'/'/g; $text=~s/mso-.+?:\s?.+?;//g; $text=~s/style=''//g; $text=~s#style='.+?'##g if ($nostyle); $text=~s/<link rel=File-List href=".+?">//g; $text=~s/class=\w+//g; $text=~s/<\/?st1:\w+>//g; $text=~s/\s+>/>/g; $text=~s/>\s+</></g; $text=~s/\s+/ /g; $text=~s#</?span>##g if ($nostyle); $text=~s#<span style='font-size:12.0pt;\s?'>(.+?)</span>#$1#g; $text=~s#<span[^>]*>\s*</span>##g; $text=~s#<span>(.+)</span>#$1#g; $text=~s/(<\w.+?>)/\n$1/g; $text=~s/\n<b>/<b>/g; $text=~s#</(html|body|head|tr|td|table|div)>#\n</$1>#g; $text=~s#\n<html>#<html>#; $text=~s#\n#\r\n#g if ($dos); print $text;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
