Default How do I save word document in a generic format

I have a News Letter WORD document that I create with text, pictures, etc.
Not everyone has MS WORD and they are unable to open this document. Any
suggestions as how to save this in a "generic format"?

Hi T,

Aside from plain text, which has no formatting - no pictures, formatting -
there is no such thing as a generic format.


People who don't have MS Word could download the free Word view from
Microsoft, at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
(URL all one line)

Many people also have Adobe's Acrobat Reader so, if you convert your files
to that format, your recipients could use that. But you'll need the
conversion software. For example, any of:
Adobe Acrobat Distiller, JAWS PDF Creator, MULP21PDF, GhostScript, PDF995,
RoboPDF, FreePDF, Serif PagePlus, Win2PDF, Go2PDF


Cheers
