Is there an easy way to convert HTML(with CSS styles and embedded images) to ODT, DOCX, DOC from the command line on linux server. I searched a lot but have not found a good option. There was a problem the same way to convert to PDF, decided by wkhtmltopdf. Perhaps there are ways to convert the resulting PDF documents to other formats?

To convert to odt it's pretty easy after installing pandoc.

After the relatively hard part: from odt (or even html) you can script (Open|Libre)Office via e.g. unoconv

Or you can like:

abiword --to=doc filename.odt
