I am not sure it supports doc -> tex. I think you need to go via odt (or sxw).
(and be it via unoconv)
It's called *Writer*2LaTex not *some document*2latex :-)

>From the website:

"The aim of Writer2LaTeX is to provide you with a set of tools centered
around conversion from OpenDocument format to LaTeX and XHTML+MathML.
[...]

The export filter Writer2LaTeX allows you to publish documents you have
prepared with Writer [...]"

Try with a odt and reopen this if it still fails.

Grüße/Regards,

René
