It will be very useful but for me so far it does not work!

Posted Thu, 07/31/2008 - 03:01 by Henry

I saved two MS Word files as txt files and uploaded them on WinXP SP2. That worked fine. For some reason they are not recognised as txt files and all I get are the properties pages if I try and look at them.

Not a whole lot of use! Any advice please or money back....?

Save As "Text Only (MS-DOS)"

Make sure you save your files as "Text Only (MS-DOS)".  That should be one of the options in Word's Save dialog.  That format works fine in the current version.  Our update coming out in a few weeks fixes this issue for the "other" text formats.


See this thread for more details.


You can also just save your Word docs as PDFs.  Mac OS X has support for this built in, and there's free utilities to do this on Windows too. If you need more info, don't hesitate to ask.
