{Solved Thanks}

Would there be any interest? header tags are used to make table of contents, anchor tags create Index entries, all the formatting tags (tables, un-numbered and numbered lists etc) do basic print formatting. All the bold/underline/italic also render to paper. Sort of like a poor man's TeX.

Has anyone done this?

I used to write my papers in HTML and a custom print CSS file I made so it fits the school's formatting requirements. It worked surprisingly well. Just write HTML, and then just print it, as basic as it gets. That was easier than bending LaTeX to the school's template which was in MS Office format.
