Sometimes my work colleague sends me a file without the extension (from
a mac) and LO does this to me, I just rename the file with .doc on the
end. Do your Word documents have .doc extension on the file name.

Hi,
I use a MacMini, running Lion. I upgraded from Snow Leopard, with which I could
read/write Word2004 documents. Lion won't let me do that. I do not want to
purchase MicrosoftOffice 2011, so i've downloaded LibreOffice3. (3.3.3)
I won't go into detail with other conversion problems. The main one is when a document is listed as a
LibreOpen Document& I try to open it w/ LibreOffice3, I get a window, "ASCII Filter
Options." I click ok,& get a document filled w/ # signs, among others. This seems to be a problem
on other websites involving the "ASCII Filter Options" issue, but none of the topics relate to
Word2004. It's always about Word2003 or Word2007.
What can I do to solve this problem? Or, can I NOT do anything to solve it?
Would appreciate any advice or links you can give me.
David
