Need help converting documentation into Confluence?

Converters

As with most automatic converters, there are always things it will guess incorrectly. However, these macros seems to do a decent job of getting you started in the process, saving hours of work. A review of the output is still necessary to tweak the page.

Warning

These conversion macros are created by a third party and only minimally tested. There is a good chance you will have to do some tweaking and troubleshooting to get these to work properly at this point.


FYI, I tried it out and it does work nicely on a basic document with nothing too fancy in it.

I also tried converting one of our standard PeopleSoft specification documents, which include a Williams Logo, some tables, and a few other odds and ends and this time the macro crashed with an error.

Still, it's a lot better than converting documents manually!
