Hi 

Before I start typing or reading in any text application, I always interact 
with the edit area. This seems to provide better results. You interact with VO 
+Shift +Down arrow. Also, in Text Edit, I've found that selecting the option 
"wrap to window" seems to improve things quite a bit too. 

Text Edit has the ability to read many file formats including .doc and .docx 
the Office 07 native format. There should be no need for you to convert the 
file types.
