Nikita: Sorry, this trick doesn't quite work. Depending on the document you'll need to do a bunch of manual cleanup or write a script to take care of it. (Among other things, the SIZE attribute values are all unquoted.) OTOH "Save as HTML" does get you a good way down the road and gives you something you can work with. Whether the result is useful XML or not is another question.

Is there something like this available? In the MS Word go to <File>/<Save As> menu, select "Save as HTML document". It will create a well formed XML file: HTML with all elements having start and end tags. Apply XSL if you want tag name or attributes changed.
