 For that reason I'd need at least $1,300 USD.  I know there can be hostile sentiment around these parts when someone asks a high price for old Amiga stuff; I'm certainly not looking to profit from this.  Let me know if you have any interest.

Not to bag on you in any way - that's about an average price for one.

Like we ever stay on topic.
Actually, the only thing I've found essential with Word files is the ability to read them or convert them to a format I can edit on my own word processor.
This is why I find Open Office to be less then ideal. Its file conversions are often flawed.


All the more reason to make plain text standard, then apply formatting through LaTex  :lol:

I think there is LaTex for amiga...

I've used OOO since ver 1 and the versions the past couple of years give very few, if any format errors when loading/saving m$ docs afaik.

I'm in the same area as you, and noticed that once OO was doing superbly on translating the documents, MS went .docx and small issues started sprouting up again.  Granted, I'm at the point where I rarely if ever even use office, but I do save in .doc format a lot just to be able to email things to other ppl for their own reading.  I find the bigger issues arise when you have a very graphics intensive layout, or try wonky spacing techniques (i.e., my wife - master of the thirty space-bar word shuffle).
