	I just finished putting it together with the SCID it did work. I am now wondering how to make the other pages of the document to print should you have them, for instance the introduction, contents, cover and everything else as opposed to just games. has anyone had success with this? it seems like you need to manually learn how to input the text with the latex processor or find something that converts a rtf file from chessbase to the finished processed latex file.

	Both Scid and ScidVsPc can export to LaTeX. So procedure would be to export from Chessbase to pgn, load it in one of those two, and then export LaTeX. I've used this for a few things, including producing tournament bulletins for each round for the participants. If you are using a lot of non-pgn/scid supported things they could get lost in the translation, but if you are only using the standard things that you get a book it should be fine.

	.rtf as intermediate format was my thought as well. Then there are various ways to get to LaTeX. A link: https://superuser.com/questions/141043/converting-a-word-document-to-latex-forma... It's not likely to be pretty without a lot of work. If it were me, I would do some work cleaning the cruft out of the .rtf file before the conversion.

	Can you go from chessbase to .rtf or even to .txt and then to Tex?
