Hi :) Nicely done! :) If the command odt2rtf filename.odt
works then perhaps you can do all the odts in a folder by using odt2rtf *.odt Don't worry about feeling uncomfortable uploading files to public mailing lists, or even to individual strangers!! lol. There are many good reasons not to upload things even if it was to people you know well and trust completely. There is no reason you have to upload anything. Sometimes it's easier to spot something odd or find a work-around if you can play around with it yourself but it's kinda cheating.
