I hope you're using a current (recent) version of OOo - 1.1.0 at least. Tables and images tend to work; if they "break", submit a Issuezilla request upstream. Fonts are ugly? Maybe you need to install some "pretty" Windows fonts - visit http://corefonts.sf.net/ OOo writes almost perfectly to MS Word format(s). -- Colin Charles, byte@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.bytebot.net/ http://fedoranews.org/colin/fnu/ - Fedora News Updates
