    Unless you use FJF *highly experimental* HTML importer plugin, HTML
    import is NOT a supported feature. And the XHTML importer we have is
    failing in several case because it is screwed up by design.

    So if you have HTML convert it to XHTML to have better chances to import
    it. After that, I'd recommend going thru XSLT to convert to AbiWord XML
    :-)
