Re: from Latex to Word adding new package

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

Pandoc is generally solid with standard latex and the most
common packages, but it can't handle tex primitives like
\kern or \raise1pt well.

If there is a unicode character, or combination of characters,
that approximates  \boxright, then (assuming you're using
xelatex or lualatex) you may be able to do something like

\newcommand{\boxright}{µ}

where µ stands in for whatever the unicode character is.
The character would be passed directly through to Word.
Give it a try.
