I did consider the likes of Libre Office and other free offerings but decided, in the end, to try Apples free offerings of Pages and Numbers etc. It's been a month or two now and, so far, I haven't come across any issues, apart from the fact that the default settings mean that if you edit a file, and then shut it, the changes made are automatically saved in it, whereas Office documents etc ask if you want to save them before closure. Clearly this can be changed but it caught me out at first.All Apple 'office' type apps can be saved in a variety of different formats and, similarly can readily read files received in other formats.Worth a look.</blockquote>
