True, but . . . I routinely share motions, briefs, and other legal documents with other attorneys. Most of them have never heard of OOo, although the number that have is growing, thanks to myself, a couple of other "evangelist" attorneys in the state, and a few folks at our state appellate defender office who have recommended it at seminars. Frankly, a lot of them are still running whichever version of MS Office came out in 1998 or 2000 (I get lost in which version is which) and they have no incentive to change. But if I send any of them an ODF file, they'll have no idea what to do with it. Therefore, I routinely save things in .doc format for them. (Our internal files are all saved in ODF, but . . .) It's all about knowing your audience. - -- Steven Shelton Twilight Media & Design, LLC 17195 Silver Parkway #134 Fenton, MI 48430 www.TwilightMD.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFKdwGxKP0FWmSVanERAoa5AKCI1aWGBKcJLvL/TgGFyeSm60S2KgCeNeDP ojOj5/keilagg6IvW/oP2xI= =vXnu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@marketing.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@marketing.openoffice.org
