I want to export some or all of the posts of a blog into a format that makes sense to a publisher (traditional or self-publisher(e.g.: Lulu.com)) (MS Word, RTF, PDF, epub, something else).

What tools are available to accomplish this?

Anthologize

A great option is the Anthologize plugin. It works with WordPress 3.0, allows you to format your book in WordPress itself, and then publish everything automatically to PDF, ePub, and other formats.

Blogbooker is a service which takes an XML export of your blog and turns it into a PDF, which could then be uploaded to a self publishing platform.

EAMann already suggested this, so to keep this list clean you better delete your answer and upvote his (once you have enough rep to upvote an answer, of course). – Jan Fabry Aug 13 '10 at 15:44
Thanks for hint, yes i vote for him; maybe it is interesting to use the Plugin WPTex from xhtml-css.com/wptex – bueltge Aug 13 '10 at 18:06

You can export into XML. and Using XML as the base, you can develop your scripts/workflow to use the XML and convert them into various formats that you would want to.

That's pretty vague. What kind of transforms would I need to do to get it into the standard formats I mentioned? – artlung Aug 11 '10 at 20:49
unfortunately the XML export does not work when e.g. you have 10.000+ posts... – edelwater Nov 14 '10 at 17:34
