------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Oct 7 03:08:05 +0000 2010 ------- Documents saved as .doc will not upload to SmashWords or to Writers of the Future. Both sites report they cannot parse the file. I tried exporting the manuscripts with all the .doc options and none of them would load at SmashWords. I only tried the 97/2000/XP option at Writers of the Future. Once the documents are loaded into MS Word and re-saved then they upload to these sites without any problem at all. I'm not sure if this is an error in OO export or if there are undocumented calls in the Word format that cannot be incorporated, but it is a huge problem for writers who submit to these major websites. Unfortunately I cannot provide the documents as these are unpublished manuscripts. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
