Are .doc files used for electronic delivery?
Where did you get that idea?
There is only one way to make any type of document (doc, pdf, txt, ...) tamperproof and that is by digitally signing it. An operation Word Word supports nicely. So Word documents are not less secure than pdf files. Yves "Peter T. Daniels" wrote in message ... Perhaps it's more that there's no security to a .doc(x) file -- anyone can change it practically at will --, as opposed to a .pdf?
