RTF Helps Bridge the Format Gap Between PCs and Macs If you use a PC and get frustrated trying to open Microsoft Word documents created on a Macintosh, or find it equally frustrating the other way around, there's an easy way to bridge the gap. No, it's not installing a translator to decipher that coding that looks like alien writing. In fact, there's a Lab standard established to address this problem. When creating documents that you'll be sending to others, simply save them as "rich text format," rather than as a Word document. Then, add a ".rtf" extension to the end of to your document name (docname.rtf) so those systems on the receiving end will be aware of the formatting. Easy, huh? |
