Converting LyX Documents to Word

http://www.physics.utah.edu/gsac/42/thesis.php

Grab the Physics Thesis Template (zip file); read the ReadMeFirst.pdf contained therein.

tex4ht is the key :)

Export to HTML (NOT HTML (Word))

Open converted html document in Word

Save as a .doc file

Do special stuff if there are any graphics files linked in the document (must be saved into the document itself) - see the ReadMeFirst.pdf instructions.

Suggested alternative: http://www.zamzar.com/ to convert online (result emailed to you) - less secure of course - don't send your top-secret stuff thru this :)
