Converting Resume Wizard 2007 to 2003 Format - Everything went Wacky!!!!
There's no "converting" necessary. Just a Save As and change the file type.

Hi I'm touching up my resume but am running in to the problem of most business' can't accept .docx. My resume is done in .docx using the resume wizard and one of the templates. I am trying in vain to convert and save into 97-2003 mode, but it just messes the whole thing up completely. Of course the format for the resume wizard doesn't wanna allow you to do anything to change the format of it once you change it. It makes the line spacing different, and in the new office I don't even know where the thing to change line spacing is Any tips of suggestions would be a huge help and I thank in advance. -- -=NINJA=- |

Yes I know how Microsoft wants me to do it, maybe I'm using the wrong word in format; it changes the layout where it pushes me to two pages,with a good 40% of both pages just blank space. Now i do notice there is subtle change in line spacing, but not huge. I have tryed trying to backspace everything up, change the margins, use the little white box thingy to change dimensional proportions but to no success. My friend tells me that this is because i used to Resume Wizard to create the document in the first place. Basically I just wanna see if i can just have it saved over to .doc in exactly the way I made it in .docx. I don't wanna have to redo the whole thing manually in .doc format cuz i spent a better part of the day making it. Thanks For any Help JoAnn Paules;2748333 Wrote: There's no "converting" necessary.

What if...........(I'm just thinking out loud)..........Open a new doc, save
it as 97-2003, open your resume, copy and paste from resume to new .doc file. Save it again. Does that work? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "-=NINJA=-" wrote in message ...

Ya I tryed that too, same results. It's the headers and how things are layed out, its like Microsoft made them permanant and unchangeable. Why does Microsoft have to make things so difficult. Resume's are one the main uses for Microsoft word, you'd think they make it somewhat seamless with the Resume Wizard.

I don't use wizards for my resume, nor do I use a Microsoft templates so I
can't answer your question. (I prefer that my resume not look like everyone else's resume.) As for your resume, very, very little is "permanent and unchangeable". It may not be as simple as a click, click and you're done, but I'd be willing to bet a tank of gas that it can be done in a relatively short time period. Care to accept my challenge? ;-) If so, contact me offline. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "-=NINJA=-" wrote in message ...

I won't "redo" it for you, but I'll help you get over this obstacle. Send
the $10 to the SPCA or to a women's shelter instead. -) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "-=NINJA=-" wrote in message ...
