Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Problem reading Word 2003 document

Thanks for looking into this.  I really would like LO to become as good 
and better than MW.

I just copied the PDF of my document to http://beachware.org/Dec12.pdf.

Because you don't seem to have trouble loading it (at least it 
recognizes it as a Word document), I decided to try opening it with my 
Linux OpenOffice (3.2.1 build 9502).  Sure enough, it opens fine there, 
but like you said, the columns are kind of screwy.

Thanks again,
Chris
