Nisus to RTF to Word
Posted: 2003-05-22 14:18:32
Configuration: G4 Cube, 512kb RAM, OS 922, Nisus 6.0.2, Office 2001 SP1 (with security updates).
I am writing a mixed Chinese-English document in Nisus and trying to export to rtf in order to open and save the document in Word so that everyone else can read and/or edit the document. Export RTF works fine; import into Word either freezes Word or Word reports a file corruption. If I save the file as a Word file from Nisus Word will try to open it but does not read the Chinese text. [Incidentally, WordPerfect Mac 3.5.5 will not even see the Nisus-exported rtf file but will open the Nisus-exported Word file just fine.] Copying the contents of the Nisus file and pasting it into a blank Word files works fine so this is one workaround but I'm not sure what will happen with complex formatting. A Word-exported rtf file cannot be read in by Nisus. I've reinstalled from CD (both Nisus and Word), deleted preferences, and sacrificed a goat. A small one, though. Got any ideas here?
