Extension to Permit Saving in .docx Format?
Posted: Wed Sep 07, 2016 6:00 pm
Greetings to all,
I have been using AOO for an age and generally I love it!
Recently,I have begun performing some volunteer editing work for aspiring writers. More often than not, they send their work to me as a file saved in .docx format. I have been returning their edited work to them saved in .rtf format, but some of them, especially Mac users, report unintended document formatting issues with the .rtf file.
Docx files, I presume, are proprietary to Microsoft, but I wonder if Writer has an extension yet that will permit files to be saved in the .docx fomat, or might I simply use the already included Windows 2000/XP .doc format without undue concern that it will screw up the edited file?
Any practical help or advice that can be offered will be appreciated.
