Thanks to both of you. I'll save this in a folder as I have a good memory

I'm working on a very large document currently at 215 pages and have been
using Wordpad and I do a BU of that each day when I add any new text which I
create in a separate file.
I have to now decide whether to continue with the use of WordPad for my
daily work and just add to the LO file after doing the WP doc as .rtf. I'm
currently saving the LO file as .odt but will likely do another save as .rtf
to see how it looks as I'm not sure what the differences are. I also don't
know if the printer of the book being created will be able to work from .odt
or will prefer .rtf.
I can say it is extremely unlikely that your printer relies on a specific
document format - it should print any type of document you send it.
As for document formats, I would think that ODT is a "better" format, but
you can also save as a regular Microsoft Word document (should you need to),
or export to PDF format. I self-published my book using LO (years ago) and
exported to PDF to publish it on Lulu.com.
I am 99.99% certain that, while it might take a little bit of adjustment,
you will find switching to LO a super nice adjustment to make. :-)
Regards,
Don
