However, to just read properly .doc files that people email me thinking
that its the only format around, what works? I need not just the text
but collumns, tables, images, the works.
Who sends you doc files? Ask for
ogg, mpeg2 or xxx files.
People who think operating a computer is using MS office. Period.
They get a glazed look when I ask for plain text even if the .doc files
they send are only straight text. Since I've never used a windows
computer (started with OS/2 and went to Debian directly), I don't know
what extra work there is for them, but I understand that the windows
recipients have to do extra work if its not a .doc file. The sender
tells me its more work to send .doc to everyone else and something else
to me.
(and to make them recognize that there are several other formats out
there.)
