Word docs to Drupal – workflow

I have tested a workflow to get ISLS documentation – in Microsoft Word with embedded screen shots – into Drupal, in order to use the excellent autocategorising and taxonomy features of Drupal.

The workflow is:

  1. Copy and paste from MS Word into Windows Live Writer.
  2. Post from Live Writer to a Wordpress blog.
  3. In Drupal use the SimpleFeed module to retrieve the RSS feed from Wordpress and create content nodes for each RSS post node in the feed.

The text and graphics successfully transfer into the Drupal node.

More to come.
