[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1640687, member: 46727"] The only way to avoid format changes in fonts, spacing, pagination, and so forth, is to save and send the Word document as PDF. Even though Mac Word and Windows Word use the same file format and basically are compatible, you can not predict how the document will be saved and printed by the receiver. This goes both ways. I receive and use Word documents from Windows users often and only on rare occasions can I use the document "as is". I usually have to spend time editing and formatting for my use. [/QUOTE]
