Hello!

In many organisations it means the difference between using Abi now or wait until Abi can export M$ Word. Because M$ Word format is not an open standard, an export will be difficult and maybe not so good as an export to RTF can be. > See bug 1410 <http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1410> > However it is still open. This is about exporting to Word-format, not about RTF with .doc extention. OK, some people replied with this idea, but that are only replies on a feature request. > BTW Word sets itself as the RTF opener upon install. So that shouldn't be a > problem at all to have RTF files on a standard Windows/Office setup. Most people do not open a document with explorer, they use something like M$ Word. And this shows by default only files with the .doc extention. And in bigger organisations, you cannot expect that all people are migrating on the same time. I want to use Abi as an M$ Word alternative on Linux desktop systems, not to replace M$ Word on Windows (but maybe that will follow?).
