Open Open Office files

[XByrne]

I still work quite a bit in Open Office, and people send me Open Office files, both as 'Writer' .odt and 'Draw' .odg documents.

It would help enormously to move entirely across to Xara Designer Pro+ if those Open Office files could be opened successfully (and even saved back in Open Office format, though the saving back is not so important).

Thanks,

Seamus

Seamus, why not convert to MS Word from OpenOffice or use some on-line convector to MS Word:

Thanks for those links!
That's a good idea!

Can open office export to PDF? This is another file format that works well in Xara.

Libreoffice which is a branch of open office exports as PDF.

Yes it can, Gary, and I've used that as a workaround. Indeed, Xara's handling of PDFs is excellent!
