A friend of mine faxed me a text. I got it via FaxSTF. I converted the fax
as a tiff file so OmniPage Pro could OCR it. I save the recognized file as a
Word document, do some finetuning, then use MacLinks to convert it to
AppleWorks 6 texte file. My friend doesn't have Word. Once on his computer
the then file opens in AW but prints as an image, like a PDF., even if he
can work the texte in the file. I have a PPC 6500, OS 9.1, he has an iMac OS
X, AW 6 for X. What goes wrong???
I think your friend's computer is opening the document with something other than AppleWorks. You can change the "open with" program in OSX very easily: Single click on the document, then select "open with" from the File menu. Then select from the choices.
You might save both you and your friend a lot of document conversion time if you sent the document back and forth in something like Plain Text (not to be confused with Simple Text) Just about any word processing program can open (import) a plain text document.
