Hi there, I've enjoyed using OOo for a fair while, and I like that it
can export in rtf and doc etc. But one of my worries is that often
things are not quite the same. I understand the reasons for this and am
not apportioning blame but have a question.
Can I use RTF as OOo's _native_ format? I've set it as the default, but
I don't know if the temp files are internally written as rtf or
something else. I want to know if, for example, OOo will let me do
things which it cannot actually save/record in the RTF format.
Background to this question is part of my work on a book/article I'm
writing in wikibooks on _Future Proofing Electronic Records_ in which I
recommend the RTF format as it is the most widely supported (yes, I know
about OpenDocument etc, read the article before suggesting that RTF is a
poor choice.)
