HTML2Book
Html2Book adds an option to automatically create a new book page for each html heading and subheading in the body text. This makes it possible to use a book created in a word processing program or other structured html to create a multipage Drupal book in a single step. To use this feature, enable the module, then click on the input split collapsible box below the book body in the edit form.
Each new book page will have the same author, categories, settings, and other characteristics of the original page. If Organic Groups is used and the original page has been assigned to one or more groups, all child book pages will belong to the same groups.
All text before the first heading will be retained as the body of the original page. Subsequent pages will be added as children of that page, using the heading as their title and all text from that point to the next heading as their body. Child pages will be nested based on the subheadding number, if the subheadings are logically organized.
The option to create books from html is permissioned, so you can restrict it to users who will understand how to use it. You may want to combine this with Html Corrector and HTML Tidy modules. For best results with html book text pasted from Microsoft Word documents, save the document as 'HTML, filtered' and use the Html Tidy module. When setting up HTML Tidy, choose the option to clean up Microsoft Word text.
