If you need to send an editable file and you work on ODF, converting to Word at the last minute (i.e. before sending) is the WORST option possible. It is almost 100% guaranteed that the document (unless it's ONLY plain text) will NOT look the same. So if you know that the person receiving it needs Doc, the best option is to work on Doc from the start.

I'm sure that even with the warning most (all?) users assumed that if you stay within a format (e.g. always doc) you wouldn't have problems when saving your document. What you are saying is that when you press the Save button in a doc file (and you are not informed of this problem when you just Save it, only on Save As) there is a conversion that causes the document NOT to be saved as you are seeing it on-screen but could be something else completely different...

It is required to do the transition away from those file formats which of course happens against the interest of Microsoft. "Compatibility" of any kind can not be a one-way-street.

They could ask the OOo/LibO community for all kinds of help if they really wanted (no, they must not want this!). ODF is not designed for one particular office software. It is a file format which is not too complex and free of legal implications. ODF does not imply that the interpreting software works in the exact same ways as any other software. All this is not true for MS Office formats which are built around one particular, very huge and most complex office suite. Any other program which wants to be 100% compatible needs to work exactly the same as that other suite which would be far beyond reasonable effort. Just take the mere size of the multi-lingual download package from download.libreoffice.org and compare it with the smallest set of MS Office applications.

If a user or company wants to migrate (and I believe that TDF and LO want that in spite of your personal opinion) from MS Office to LO they need to be able to convert their existing documents.

Wouldn't be better from a design perspective to use the 'save as' option only for odf formats, and the option 'export' for non-odf (pdf, png, html, etc.) formats? The logic behind the current behaviour is this: There are file types we can read and write, others we can only read and a third category we can only write. R/W types appear in File>Open and in File>SaveAs. When you save any type to another type you continue working with the new file and every save will convert the document model to the respective file type. Read-only types open read-only and for editing you have to save them under a different name with a different type using the save-as dialog or pushing the edit button. The latter options produces a new unsaved instance of the document you can work with until you save it in a writable format. Write-Only types are always exported as a file copy snapshot.

But then you need a software which supports each and every aspect of the foreign file format in the same way. This comes very close to writing a clone of the other software. This is why the Sun ODF plug-in for MS Office amounts to 80+ MB. It produces perfect ODF because it basically installs a clone of OOo 3.2 under the hood of the other office suite. The dilemma is perfect when the application's native file format provides only a sub-set of the attributes that can be stored in the foreign format. This is why life would be so much easier if MS would support ODF. Their "bigger" software could do this much easier than our software will ever support their formats, particularly when they constantly "extend" their own formats in order to be as incompatible as possible. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

No, because you will have exactly the same problem: even if you save in MS-Office formats, LibO use ODF as internal format, so you have a conversion problem each time you save your file. And it is not prohibited to be careful and check your converted file before to send it.

[...] But when you are working within the same format, you assume that what is on screen is what is being saved! It should clear that this cannot be true. Much of the structure of a word processor document is not directly visible on the editing screen. (Consider, just as an example, paragraph breaks, line breaks, and line ends that occur dynamically as text flows within a passage - which all appear the same.) The saved document file contains a definition of the document, and what you see on the editing screen is merely a rendering - accurate or otherwise - of that definition. Even the same application software may render the document differently on different platforms, with different but identically named fonts or even substituted fonts, with different printers having different minimum margins, and so on. The differences between renderings by a different version of the same software or by different software will generally be greater. It is an understandable and convenient idea that your correspondents will automatically see what you see when they open your word processor document files, but that is not so. But you need distribute such files only if you are co-operating with your correspondents in editing the material. In the majority of cases, recipients need only to display, read, and possibly print your work, so PDF documents are a better bet. As its name suggests, this format is designed to be more portable.

Another way that does not involve editing any files is this: Tools > Options > Load/Save > General In the right panel near the bottom are two drop-downs: Document type and Always save as. Select the doc type -- say, text document -- and then select Microsoft Word 97/etc. in the save as box. (I'd click OK here but it may not be necessary to do that until you've set all three.)
