Hello Vyatcheslav, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky yatskov...@gmail.com writes: I did only some basic steps. )) Nothing to mention yet. What kind of documents you need to convert? Only simple ones, or containing formulaes, etc.? It is just a problem that comes up from time to time, rather than an extensive collection of documents arriving on my desktop in one go. Most people in my department use Word, and, although I have OpenOffice, I don't use it other than as a means of opening and converting the Word and Excel files that come my way. The current document is short, simple and I dealt with it by converting to text and doing the formatting from scratch. However, others will probably want to edit it and I'm sure it will arrive back on my desk in Word again, so a less manual method of conversion would be convenient.
