Last line of document deleted when sent by email

[morggan]

Hi there,
Every time I email a file, the person who receives the attachment tells me it has arrived with the last sentence cut off. It happened several times with different files and to different people. It is always the last line cut off. I think maybe my Open Office is corrupted, and also I have to upgrade to the last version (mine is 4.1.3 for Mac), but I just wanted to know if any of you had the same issue. Also, do I need to uninstall Open Office before installing the last version? Would the latest version resolve the issue?
Thanks!
Laura

Are you saving in the .doc format? There was a fairly long thread about that with a suggested solution, sort of: Missing last line.

Yes, I save it in .doc format. I'll check the thread you mention, thanks!!

No and no as it seems to be a MS Word problem.

See [Tutorial] Differences between Writer and MS Word files for why you should always work in and save files as .odt.
