Can I ask what is the point of using OO/LO and then setting the default
document type to MS Office?
The biggest reason is our users do not remember to save in MS format when sending files to
customers and vendors. I am not sure a single customer of ours could open an .odt file, for
example, so we have to use formats our customers and vendors can open.
Our IT departmnet prefers OO/LO not only due to licensing costs, but also because the OO/LO
interface is more familiar to most people. MS Office 2007 and 2010, with the ribbon interface,
does not look much like MS Office 2003.
When sending to customers, they better send it in PDF-format then in
.doc or .docx
But that just my opinion ;)
