Right now, since my PC is not wanting to boot up, i am opening doc's
in either Pages or Test editor on my mac laptop. I can read them but
sometimes i get a lot of strange characters in the doc that i don't
want when i print them out.
I have done doc's in Appleworks and saved them as word do's but the
people i send them to cannot open them
Any time I have a document on an Apple computer that I know is going to
have to be read on a PC, I save as a "RICH TEXT FORMAT" (.rtf) file. So
far, that's never failed me.
You can't count on any version of M$ Word actually being readable by any
other version, and especially can't count on any non-M$ Word text
editor's version of word.doc files to be readable by another program ...
double-especially across platforms.
