You're on the first page of google hits for something I needed an answer to. Small world. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to write something up here. My (also quite reasonable) boss (advisor) also needs things in Word (even though he used to code LaTeX in Vi apparently...). Also - why are you using ps at all anymore? (or maybe you're not). pdflatex makes life much easier. As for my life, this convinced me to just do a copy-paste instead of something automated and clean up by hand! (my document wasn't so large).

That client is really superb, and allows me a fair bit of latitude, so I don't (usually) mind. It's not like I have to maintain ALL my documents in Word. My current solution is using 37Signals.com writeboards, export to HTML, import that to Word. Very convenient. I leave all the latex down in the source or other internal documents.
