Having said that, i don’t see a reason to switch when the document is<br>

The new ISO system uses XML behind the scenes, and if they made XML<br>
import available, it'd maybe be possible to use XSLT to take the Word<br>
file and produce their XML, given a suitable blob of funding. Or they<br>
may have a suitable Word input system working themselves. But even if<br>
it’s entirely automated it would need a careful proofreading for sure.<br>
<br>
For a future version of the document, starting out again as a draft, i<br>
think it would make a lot of sense.<br>

Kind regards,<br>
