I just opened this with Star Office 8 without a hitch. Star Office 8 is free from Google by the way using their excellent Google Pack http://pack.google.com/intl/en-gb/pack_installer_new.html?hl=en-gb&gl=uk&ciN um=11
Also exported it out successfully to PDF. I'm running Windows XP, so have all the usual MS True type fonts installed. I'm guessing that anyone trying Open Office from a Linux distribution would have problems. Free SUSE 10.3 (which I have as a dual boot on one of my machines) has the option to download and install the MS font set, so that should solve the problem. Not sure about other Linux flavours. Looks like John Vig used Arial for most of it anyway.
