I took a technical writing class a few years ago.  Because I was using
OO or Abiword, I also handed in the pdf so the prof could see how the
document was supposed to look.

These issues exist between different versions of Office so most profs
should be aware (at least mine was).

Also, Microsoft won't directly support ODF until their board and
shareholders are convinced.  I am not holding my breath.
