[aus.mac] word 4 and pagemaker

rap@csadfa.oz (Robert Pearson) (07/05/89)

 I have someone interested in using  Microsoft Word 4.0 with Pagemaker v3.0.
I understand that it is currently not possible to import files from word 4
to pagemaker.
	If anyone has experiance in seeing this work , or fail would
they please let me know.
 Another group would like ( Horrors) to use Word and Pagemaker on an IBM clone.

Disclaimer: I have no intention of using such a combination myself.

Robert Pearson (rap@csadfa.oz) asks for assistance with regards to placing
word 4 documents into Pagemaker. Well, it can be done, if you don't mind
losing some of the features that word 4 gives over word 3. Simply save your
word 4 document as a word 3 document (you don't have to overwrite the original
- it's probably best to do a 'save as...' and change the name). This file can
then be placed into a pagemaker document. If this is not what you want to do
the only thing that can be doen is to wait for an upgraded Pagemaker.

Or, get PageMaker 3.02 - it reads Word4 documents.
