What would you use to open the Word file to insert placeholders? Can't
that same program save as HTML? OpenOffice Writer and Abiword (and most
versions of MS-Word itself) can open Word files, make your changes and
save as HTML, with varying degrees of success depending on the documents.
Those are your best bet.

Command-line tools like antiWord, wvHTML and Word2X can convert older
Word files to HTML or text, but I've never found one I can manage to set
up that will reliably convert what I need.
wvHTML: http://wvware.sourceforge.net/

word2X: http://word2x.sourceforge.net/
