[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1225821, member: 71075"] It can read and write Word docs but won't do so by default so when you save. Follow the instructions [URL="http://superuser.com/questions/265038/use-ms-formats-by-default-in-libreoffice"]here[/URL] - you'll probably need to replace "Tools > Options" with "LibreOffice > Preferences" (I don't have it installed right now but I'm guessing, like all other Mac apps, this is how you'll get to the preferences). It may not be perfect with Word formats - this is something you'll want to test beforehand (as you've already found out). [/QUOTE]
