Will AbiWord support the Open Document? Yes. There's currently decent import support for OpenDocument. We also recommend Rich Text format as the best way to share documents with other Word Processing software. But the last line sentence is... just plain... argh. http://www.abisource.com/release-notes/2.8.0.phtml [Improved OpenDocument Format (.odt) support] Mind you, while I have AbiWord installed, I'm not advocating OOo be replaced with it; just questioning your statement that AbiWord doesn't support OpenDocument format. How well? I don't really know as I've only tried AbiWord a few times to test. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
