OK I see what you mean.  ".doc" does not save the document view 
"style".  I took you email text and saved it under .doc, .odt, and .html 
while viewing the text in "Web Page" mode.  I do not know why .doc does 
not save the page viewing information.  It may default seeing the page 
as a portrait page not "web page" view which looks much line landscape 
to me.  In the page setup, the default page style is portrait even with 
the "web page" view style.
