Osman Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Hi, I am using XML export to generate word files. But older office versions (Office 2000 and Office XP) can not open this kind of files. How do I handle this problem? Is anyone knows any alternative office application to browse and edit WordML files. Or should I export in any other format, but how? Thanks osman cabi
comment Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 1. Did you check if there is converter for backward compatibility (like there is for OpenXML)? 2. I believe OpenOffice can open and edit WordML files, and also save them in older formats (and it's free). 3. Hard to suggest alternatives without knowing the purpose. Surely a plain text format would be compatible with just about anything…
Osman Posted October 12, 2008 Author Posted October 12, 2008 thanks, I look for converter or add-in for older office versions. I only find Polar WordML addin for office, but it does not work. And plain text is not solve my problem. I am using some tables, fonts ...etc. I'll download and try Open Office. thanks for your help again. osman cabi
