Great! I've not used Red Carpet for this. Could you write a quick
explanation for others who might want to try it of any tips and traps
that would make it easier?

As Trevor noted earlier, the applets are an area where a lot of work
is still needed, both docs conversion, screenshotting (is that a word?

:-).
