Hello everyone,
I am using OpenOffice 2.4 (but this problem also happened in previous
versions), and my problem is that I can format a document very nicely using
tables or whatever. However, when I save it as a .doc or as a .rtf, it'll open
fine on my computer, but when I send that file to someone, and they open it
using Microsoft Office, they get a document with lots of pages, and each
section of the table on a separate page. Therefore, a document of 3 pages with
tables and headings becomes one of 21 pages with one sentence each at the
beginning of the page.
This makes things very difficult, since if I format a CV, and then I send it as a job application to a prospective employer, they open up a jibberish document and end up trashing my CV because it is not formatted properly.
Assuming you're running Windows, you might want to install the free
Microsoft Word Viewer, so you can see how your documents will look in Word.
