I gave it a document from a Word-based programming tutorial. The translation was straight forward and it put my graphics in reasonably sensible places. The big problems were: it lost the different fonts I was using (I show programs in a different font to the normal text); I had numbered the steps and they had got lost; the breaks weren't where I expected them. To make the tutorial into a useable elearning resource I would have to spend quite a bit of time tweaking things. Also I am not sure my students would appreciate the tutorial online, we have only single monitors on our PCs and the programming environment takes up a full screen.
