I tend to open them in LO and then save then to LO's template file
format. It has worked in the past, but I have not done that since 4-6
months ago. LO has changed since then. I also did it with OOo 3.x
before. The .dotx did not work will with OOo, but .dot did last year.
So I see no reason for LO not to be able to do it now.
An external, batch system? I do not know of a way. Batch conversion
systems may not be the best way, if there is one. I used one for
converting graphic files to a different format, since my open-source
package did not support the original clipart image files. About half of
the files gave me errors in the batch process, when it gave me no
problems opening it in a different graphics package [not open source]
and the saving it in a format that my open source package could use.
SO, I do not have any good luck with batch conversion packages.

Is there a way of converting MS Office templates (some .dot and some
.dotx) easily and quickly into Libre Office templates?
Thanks!
