Any way to convert my MS Word files so I can view them in Lion?

Upgraded to Lion, then found that I couldn't open any Word files.
My Word app is a PowerPC app, which I migrated from my old Power Book G4.
I'd just like to be able to view them in Rich Text Format.

OS 10.9 Mavericks will let you download OpenOffice, but the OS won't let you run it. You get a message that says it won't open because it's not from a trusted source. It's not in the App Store.
I found I could open old PPC MS Word '98 files on my 2006 Core Duo MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.8. That OS has Rosetta which will run PPC apps, and even when running an Intel version of MS Word on that machine, the files would open. So you don't actually need to run the PPC app.

  • How do i save my word files so i can open them in windows?

    Im doing some work on my MAC and saving it to my pendrive. Whats the best format to save them so i can open and edit them in windows?

    Hi Chris,
    Format the flash drive in FAT32, save the file as you would normally and transfer it to the flash drive, then the PC. It should work fine unless one of the Word apps is older.

    The vi's contain some items specific to LV 6.1. They no longer run, but here you go anyway. You might be able to get them back working in 6.02 with some effort, or at least see what's being done.
    Good luck

  • I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them?

    I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them or must I do it on another machine?

    iPhoto used to support the PCD format up to a few years ago. It's extremely frustrating that Apple decided to no longer support this format and now I'm directed to pay nearly $40 for an app that will (GraphicConverter 9). Did Lemke Software make a deal with Apple so we'd have to pay a premium for a very overpriced converter? And, how are decisions like this supposed to encourage the use of iPhoto?
    Apple users already pay a premium to use a Mac. Obstacles like these eventually destroy loyalty to the Apple brand. Just ask Microsoft how their back room deals that exploited their customer base worked out for them.

  • Is there any way to convert the ImportObject into an image file ?

    I have converted a FM document into MIF file format. FM has a grapic imported by copying into the document. In the MIF file I can see the image like the following,

    Is there any way to convert the ImportObject inside the mif file into an image file ?

    Error 7103,
    Regarding Note A and Note B... The Downsample dropdowns list three variations of Downsampling TO, each corresponding to a different downsampling method. When you select one of the Downsampling TO options, then the pixels per inch box allow you to specify the dpi of the downsampled image, the one after the downsampling.
    When you select Off, which means do NOT downsample, then the pixels per inch box is meaningless. Maybe it would be a nice interface feature to disable it, but that is another issue. In any event, OFF ignores any value in pixels per inch.
    Whenever you import an image into your publishing program (FrameMaker, InDesign, or whatever) and scale it, one can think of the scaled image as having a physical dpi, the number of pixels per physical inch on the "paper." When you specify downsampling in Distiller, the number you specify is most likely less than the physical dpi of the image in the document. It is probably meaningless to specify a number that is larger. I am guessing (and this is a guess) that Distiller does not UPsample images. I have never tested it.
    I use 1200 for image recovery.
    I assume you are talking about recoverying an image embedded in (copied into) the publishing document. I believe it is sufficient simply to turn downsampling off to create a PDF with the image at the resolution as embedded in the document.
    No, one of the settings is to Determine Automatically, which uses the resolution of the image IN the PDF.
    Where is that found?
    It is NOT in Distiller. It is in Acrobat Professional. (It may or may not be in Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Reader; I do not have them, so do not know.)
    The original poster wanted to recover an image copied into a Frame document file. My method is to create a PDF using a Distiller joboption with ALL downsampling and ALL compression OFF. Presumably the image is put into the PDF with all the pixels it has in the Frame file.
    THEN in Acrobat PROFESSIONAL, export the image with the setting Determine Automatically. I am presuming (never tested it) this exports ALL the pixels that the image has in the PDF file.

  • Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??

    Hi All,
    I have place some word file to indesign cs 5.5 it is almost in one table, i need to separate the text from the real tables, Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??
    If there is no way to make that, any one can help me to make a script to cut the selected rows and place it in privies pointer of the table to make it independent table and after that convert it to text ?

    This insert the rows contents after the table instead of being before:
    for (var r = app.selection.length - 1; r >= 0; r--) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            for (var u = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells.length - 1; u >= 0; u--) {
                for (var c = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs.length - 1; c >= 0; c--) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs[0].move (LocationOptions.AFTER, app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset));
                    if (c != 0)
                        app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
                if (u != 0) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\t";
                else {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
    for (var r = 0; r < app.selection.length; r++) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            app.selection[r].rows[t].remove ();

  • Vba convert multiple MS Word files to signle PDF

    I am creating an automation script that I will integrate into an application.  I am trying to convert multiple MS Word files that are listed in a database (with their names and file locations) into a single PDF.  I have Adobe X Pro version.  I tried using distiller directly (acrodist.exe) but it seems to require the use of PostScript files.  What would be the best way to achieve my goal to automate the fille conversion/combination of the MS Word files. 
    Thanks in advance,
    Ben

    Acrobat will have to be installed on the user's computer and it will open (though you can hide the windows).
    The best way to do this is to write a custom plugin for Acrobat (in C/C++) that manages the conversions for you (using the AVConversion APIs) and have that communicate (via the IPC mechanism of your choice) to your custom application.

  • Any way to convert PDF document in to Tiff format with inbuilt IBR features

    Is there any way to convert PDF document in to Tiff format with inbuilt IBR features?
    In our Webcenter Portal app, we create the PDF document with the content of ADF pages and check it in UCM using RIDC api.
    There will some batch job which will retrieve the documents from UCM and send them to client internal Document management system. The client / batch job will only process TIFF files. So we need a way to convert the PDF into TIFF. We are okie to have both PDF and TIFF stored in UCM.
    When i have done research, i could only see components like PDFexport or TIFFConverter which only converts the other formats into PDF. But i am expecting a reverse conversion. Is it possible ? Thanks

    why can I not convert pdf into word file?

    This is not a feature of Adobe Reader. You'll need either Acrobat or a subscription to one of the web-based services that Adobe offers (like PDF Pack) to do it.

  • Is there a way to convert REASON's .sxt files to LOGIC's .exs format???

    Is there a way to convert REASON's .sxt files to LOGIC's .exs format???
    From the NNXT sampler file format to the EXS24 format???

    I have done it manually, and it takes a long time just for 1 patch.
    Just the sample editing and naming takes hours!
    Autosampler automates this process.
    You can define how many velocity levels you need.
    If a midi CC changes the sound in an interesting way, you can have Autosampler send the controller in increments and sample that.
    At the end of it, you end up with a finished EXS instrument.

  • Any way to Convert CHAR(8)  field to QUAN(8)?

    Any way to Convert CHAR(8)  field to QUAN(8)?
    Thank-You.

    Hi
    The MOVE statament automatically converts the data format
    DATA: VAR_IN(8) TYPE C,
          VAR_OUT   TYPE P.
    MOVE VAR_IN TO VAR_OUT.
    It's important your char has only number and the point as separator of decimal part.
