Microsoft Word

Tinderbox does not support import/export with MS Word's DOC binary format. As RTF is also not supported the best choices are:

• Import
  • Plain text. Export to TXT and add via drag drop.
  • Styled text. Copy/paste between apps.
• Export
  • Plain text.
    • Nakakoji view - gives a single text file.
    • HTML export but with templates set not to add HTML and export file extensions set to '.txt'. More flexibility.
  • Styled text. Export well-styled HTML and open in Word.

Note that some text styles can't be exported.

From v6.6.0, Microsoft Word® files (.doc) and Word XML files (.docx) may now be dragged into Tinderbox preserving source text and tabular styles in Rich Text form. Documents with complex styling or much embedded content may not import all source information; images embedded in Word documents arte not imported. If in doubt, first test with simple text documents.
