I recently downloaded the newest version of Ubuntu in order to try it out as I am not so impressed with Windows. The current download includes LibreOffice. The main thing which would stop me from moving over to Ubuntu is compatibility with MS Office 2007 files. I have been putting out a weekly newsletter in Hebrew for the past 9 years and need to be able to access my MS files and to be able to read them and work with them. I also have some people working with me and they use MS Word and I must be able to successfully transfer files between them and myself. The newsletter is in Hebrew. When I tried opening the MS files using LibreOffice I found that the formatting was very messed up as well as LibreOffice not having the fonts I use and therefore everything came out wrong. How can I get LibreOffice to open these files while maintaining the proper formatting and fonts? I hope there is a way as everything I have heard about Ubuntu and Libreoffice point to them being much more stable and powerful than MS but, as I wrote, I need the compatibility with MS Office 2007 files.
