In every three to four years Microsoft comes with it’s new version of Microsoft Office suite. Microsoft Office every time brings some more new features, a better GUI(Microsoft Says) and fix some of the security issues that are there in the older versions of Microsoft Office Application, but all these things bring one very big problem I.e. change in that default file format of Microsoft Office. Prior to Microsoft Office 2007 all Microsoft Office applications have the .doc,.ppt or some other fie format but Microsoft Office 2007 introduces new file formats .docx , .pptx.Every new version of Microsoft Word or Excel had a new file format which was only semi-compatible with the previous one. Microsoft seemed to use file format compatibility as a way to force-march people into upgrading to the newest version of Office.
SPECIFYING FILE COMPATIBILITY
As different versions of Word have been released over the years, there are noticeable differences in the way text layout and formatting appear. Sometimes it’s necessary to make changes to an existing document so that it emulates the formatting of a previous version of Word. Having this ability makes viewing these types of documents easier. The changes you make aren’t permanent, so you can change things back to the old display if you need to.
1. Open the document.
2. Go to Tools | Options | Compatibility.
3. Click on the Font Substitution button to substitute non-supported
fonts with supported ones, and click OK.
4. Choose the version of Word you want to emulate from the Recommended
Options For drop-down list.
5. Enable the appropriate check boxes in the Options list to select any
additional desired display aspects.
6. Click OK.
Office 2007 is supposed to be able to open standard 2003 and previous files, but you still have font problems occasionally. If you’re using an older version of Office, you can download the Compatibility Pack which is supposed to make OpenXML documents work in Office 2003, but it’s kind of a hit and miss affair.
