If you are in brf or any other format and save as a keyword document, here is what you get: 1. The keyword file will retain your last position, block markers, layout changes, and place markers indefinitely. 2. No extension will be shown on the filename when it appears in a list. 3. You will not be asked "review previous options?" every time you open the document. 4. Disadvantage: no other device (except another bn) can read these files, so you must translate them before using another device to edit or view them. Attaching them to an email makes this easy since you are prompted to attach as a non-keyword format automatically.
That is all I can think of for now. Any differences in size/space taken on disk are small enough to not worry about.
