I don't think that I can particularly claim originality in what I wrote. The home page of OpenOffice.org says "OpenOffice.org is a free productivity suite compatible with all major office suites." ... and I'm sure I got it from them rather than the other way round :-) M. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hey Guy, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hey, is there an oppenOffice filter i can send along with my documents so that MS users can read them? i know i can export to word, but i'd like to let everyone know i'm using OO! ;-) Not that I know of - it's something that has been discussed before, but it hasn't been done. If it ever does *get* done, it will likely be with the upcoming new file format(s) for OOo 2.0 - which will be the OASIS backed - OpenDocument formats. They are based on the current OOo formats - (and by format*s* I mean, Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw they all have their own format) - but the OASIS - OpenDocument formats are a little different. I'd say keep exporting to MS Office compatible formats, or other more universal formats, like RTF, PDF, or Flash, at least until OOo 2.0 (which is just a few more months) and maybe then a MSO filter for OOo formats will spring up. Also, if you really want to send an "open source/open formats" message, you can always send an OOo file *with* a MSO file, and send them links to OpenOffice.org and AbiWord (which is free, open source, cross-platform, and OOo Writer/MS Word compatible, and *much* smaller than OOo). With a brief explanation of what you are doing. "I thought you might like to try a free office suite or a free word processor. It's open source, and open format, so you won't be locked in to one proprietary software provider." or something like that. Or, if you want a really simple and non-bandwidth hogging way of showing your OOo pride - just include a little signature line or something saying "All documents contained in this email were made on OpenOffice.org - the free, open source, open format, cross-platform office suite, available at http://www.openoffice.org/"; Just a thought... -Chad Smith -- Cross-posted in case anyone in marketing thinks the sig-line campaign might be a good idea for wider use Please continue any conversation about a sig-line campaign on dev@marketing.openoffice.org - if not subscribed, you can sign up today on the OOo website - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
