MS Word in macOS about wordaslatexeditor HOT 1 OPEN

Thank you.

The code, which is in fact MS Word automation, is VBA (visual basic for applications). Additionally, we need some customization of the MS Word menu-bar. Moreover, you need "ghostscript", where you may have to adapt the command-line parameters, or you can take any other program that converts a pdf to a png-image by a command-line.

Issues:

VBA may still be supported in the newest version of Office for MAC, but this seems not be evident, and may depend on the application (Word, Excel...):

In principle, VBA for Mac should be the same as for Windows, but you are never sure. Then the Menu-Bar in Office for Mac seems to be accessed differently:

Unfortunately, I have no access to a Mac. But it seems that the adaption may be not be trivial (in the base case that VBA is supported in current and future version of Office for Mac, and the VBA code executes correctly on Mac). So, this would mean that you have to go into the VBA-code (in the .dotm) and check compatibility and adapt.
