Interesting! I didn't know that! :shock:

My idea of "reading" a particular format - in this case .wpd - should be to preserve everything; text, formats, graphics, etc. Only understandable exception would be proprietary stuff, like WordArt in M$ Word, that can't be duplicated. :?

Your advice is the first serious misrepresentation I have come across in Open Office. At least with Impress Open Office.org pointed out that support was limited to versions up to and including Powerpoint 97!

Sorry my advice didn't help.
