Ruth,
Did you check out any of the solutions I posted yesterday? The entire series
of messages on this topic today seems to indicate *no one* has considered
what I posted as viable options. I listed three PDF converters and you can
Google for more. Personally, if I had a one-off project that I was trying to
get done fast I would begin with downloading the fully functional trial
version of Able2Doc 4.0 available at
http://www.investintech.com:80/prod_a2d.htm
As a commercial program I expect it to be one of the more accurate options.
You can also try an online conversion at www.zamzar.com , which will accept
a file up to 100MB in size for free.
Print your report to PDF, use the software above (or whatever) to convert it
to a Word document (a real Word document file, not RTF) and edit as needed
to fix the Legacy flaws. It is not worth the time spent on these back and
forth messages when you could just convert the file and be getting on with
the business of making the changes you desire. I think most of us get the
gist of the problem with the Legacy output and what you are trying to
produce. You seemed to indicate you had a time crunch. I do not mean to be
rude, but IMO you would be better served spending the time on a *solution*,
and deferring more bug reports and such for later.

Subject: [LegacyUG] another bug
And I just found another bug - pdf format too many blank lines between
last paragraph of information and the statement (Duplicate Line. See
Person, blah blah) - will it never end? And yes I did check the spacing
for the report and I couldn't find a place to change it. It happens in
Preview but doesn't happen in .rtf. I reported the bug.
