Benefits of saving in open formats
Saving documents as open formats (for example, ODT or ODS) ensures:
...
- documents can be accessed easily by all users
- there is no need to go back and 'fix' the document to make it accessible at a later date
- only one version of the document is required
Setting open formats as the default option in Microsoft Office
Microsoft Office doesn't have to save in Microsoft Word (.DOC), Excel (.XLS) or PowerPoint (.PPT) format.
...
This saves you the extra step of converting documents to that format.
Set this up in Word
Click File to bring up the menu, and then select Options at the bottom of the panel
...
Then where it says Save files in that format, please select OpenDocument Text (odt)
Word will now save in ODT format automatically.
