|  Werner, there are still some serious issues importing w97/xp docs.
|  - header, footer
|  - page numbering
|  - tables
|  - (optional) font type replacement (IMHO very important, as this is the
|  "first" impression) - I know it has nothing to to with kword and the
| filter - multi-column (I get only the first page) and this one is not
| rendered completely correct.

I am certanly willing to test new filter and report bugs.
Testing KWord 1.2 filter makes no sense, as it is somewhat obsoleted and 
replaced in 1.3
In addition to Cyrillic docs (Russian, Macedonian, Serbian languages), I have 
test document in Chineese :-)

But most important is *tables*. Typical Word document has enermous number of 
tables.  I would say, alsmot all formatting is done via tables (same as with 
real-world web sites, designed with FrontPage).
