Hi Tom :-)

I can probably get away with sending .docs, but I would like the option to convert to .docx later if need be. At the final stages I can work on an MS computer in MS Office.

The documents have no images, they are basic articles with only prose and references. They need to look pretty professional though. Thanks for the suggestion regarding PDFs --- I'll most likely do that. My current plan is to create a LibreOffice template and apply it to the docs and then tweak them later on an MS machine.

Many thanks for the help.

Regards,
Ryan

Hi :)
Can you send them all as Doc? if you can convert the DocX to Doc then it might work better. DocX can be a bit unpredictable at times.

Do the documents have lots of images, frames, tables and charts and stuff? Also i'm just wondering if it's possible to send Pdfs of the documents in addition to the documents themselves. LibreOffice can use lossless compression easily and remembers the settings for the next one.

Tom :)

Hello,

Apologies if this is a basic question. I've been given some documents to
format according to certain style guidelines. The files are mostly .docx
and .doc and must be sent off in this format. I work only with
LibreOffice. My questions is, if I format the articles using paragraph
and page styles rather than just directly changing the format in the
body of the document, will the formatting be maintained when the
documents are opened in MS Office? I am not concerned with small
discrepancies that can be tweaked later on, rather whether this method
of formatting generally transfers well. Again, sorry if it's a silly
question.

Many thanks.
Ryan
