When I mail a document written in OpenOffice.org Writer the receivers can not open it. I can change it into a Pdfand then they can open it. But I do not want that as I would like to keep it so that I can go on working with it. Hope you can help me
Exporting as a PDF does not change your original file at all, it creates a new file with the .pdf extension. So you can go on working with your document after the export; it should still even be open. Save it as you normally would, and later, just open the .odt version of the file (Openoffice can't open the .pdf version). The PDF solution is probably the best one when you are sending a document they don't need to edit. If they do need to edit, try File > Send > Document as E-mail and choose the Word format they can use. Or use Save As and choose the Word format. (In that case, it will probably be less confusing if you delete any .odt version and continue your work using only the .doc version. Openoffice is perfectly happy with that.)
