You know - if you can pull in a word file and render it (better than clipboard), or write a notesdocument out to word (or better - Acrobat) - then go for it..
Its surprising how often these internal systems end up spitting out a "nicely" formatted document in a file to somewhere outside the company. (My invoicing system for instance - but I'm to cheap [and dont raise enough invoices to justify it.. Scotsman!])..
And its a low pain thing - why not ?

Importing Word docs? CAN you get them to render right in Notes/Web? If so, I know I'd be interested. And writing Notes docs out to Acrobat would be cool, too, as Bill said. I don't know if this is really what you meant, but there's definitely a need for that sort of thing. If it's relatively straightforward, I would say it's a no brainer.

File-Export to OpenDocument would be neat.
