I'm not aware that you can change a font format to
an actual character string. It may be that Word Basic can do it, with some
programming, but I can't speak to that.
You might try this:
- load the document into Wordpad, and save it as
RTF.
- load that file into Notepad (or some other plain
text editor)
- go to the italicized text--you should see it
surrounded by "\i" and "\i0"
- globally replace "\i0" with "</i>"
- globally replace "\i" with "<i>"
- save the file, and reload it into Word (or Wordpad) to see
if things look OK.
Wordpad uses a much simpler form of RTF than Word. You can use
the same technique for bolding (\b and \b0). Note that you may have
to deal with unwanted blank spaces before and after these codes and
the resulting HTML tags. Experimentation is recommended.

Subject: [gutvol-d] Italilc markkup
Can anyone tell me how to change real
italics in MSWord 2003 to html markup (<i>words</i> and the
reverse? I do not want to change the document to html, just the italic markup.
I used to know how to do it but I have forgotten.
