I design a magazine using a Mac G5 and I get Word .doc files from the editors. I open the files in InDesign and most of the time this works fine.
Occasionally the program says it doesn't have a filter to place the file and it won't open. If I open the file in Word or Text Edit, I get gibberish--numbers, letters and symbols. I resave with different options but the gibberish stays the same.
Do you know what the problem is so I can tell the editors?
Thanks,
Ronzoman
