How to Print a Mail attachment that is a Word document?

I'm working on a community project and other members of the group are sending their work which they have printed on Word on their PC as attachments to an email. I can open and read the documents, but am not able to print them.
I get a popup from Microsoft telling me I have to purchase Office 2004 if I want to print these out. With Text Edit, AppleWorks, iWork already installed, why should I have to purchase another product?
Is there any alternative?

Hello and welcome to the Discussions.
While in the message with attached xxxxx.doc file, control-click over it, and choose Open With, and then choose Pages. While you may get an occasional font substitution, you will be able to print. Same, but choose TextEdit.
Apparently you have allowed OSX to choose the demo version of Office that came on your (new) Mac to open these documents. This will only last for 30 days, I think, and you should probably remove it, to avoid confusion.
However, did you buy iWorks, or is the version installed more than a demo of it?

  • How to print a PDF file that was display in my page...

    Hi !. My doubt would be the following one... I would like to know how to print a pdf file that was displayed in my page ?... I mean the PDF file not the page...
    The PDF would be in this url:
    http://iprodesa.lasegunda.com.ar:8090/datos/pdf/830.pdf
    How could I implement this ?...

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

    Ps: which jdev version do you use?

  • Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open

    Hello,
    Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open when the recipient opens the message. Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open and sometimes I have to open them. Why is this?

    Hello Bobejoe.
    Can I send a mail attachment that will automatically open
    when the recipient opens the message.
    No, fortunately.
    Sometimes when I get attachments they are already open
    This doesn’t make sense. What do you mean?
    Why is this?
    It isn’t.

    Is there a free app I can download that is a (Word) Document on my Mac?

    As far as I know, any free word processing apps would be no where near as good as opposed to just purchasing iWork (Apple's version of Word) or Microsoft Office for Mac. It's definitely worth the price to buy one of these if your planning on using it a lot.

  • I can no longer print e-mails now that I've made my Brother printer wireless.

    Until I added my Brother MFC-495CW to my home network so I could print wirelessly, I could print e-mails. Now I cannot using Mozilla Firefox. However, Word, Excel, Adobe, Internet Explorer will all print documents. The printer just sits there as if it's not even receiving a signal from Firefox, BUT the network strength is high.

    See this: <br />

  • How can I read mail attachment for making it to the payload?

    Hi everybody,
    in the following my scenario:
    I have an incoming message with attachment by the mail sender adapter using PayloadSwapBean (because of other messages I have to use the bean). I want to send this attachment by using the mail receiver adapter to fix E-mail-address keeping the FromMailAddress, the MailSubject and the FileName
    without the metadata as additional attachment.
    I have found a thread where it is explained how to handle "payload as mail attachment and dynamic filename" by java-mapping. So far so good. My question is: How can I make my attachment to be the payload? How can I read the attachment by java-mapping?
    Thanks for help.
    Reagrds,
    Sebastian Linke

    USe payloadSwapBean for this to swap your payload and attachment

  • How to "label" the mails, as that in gmail

    My question is simple
    I like to use the Mail in Moutain Lion but since I use gmail heavily, I wonder how to "label" selected email as that done in gmail browser.
    In OSX Mail there are "mailbox" that collect all the emails in the same gmail "label". So there should be a way to "put/label" the selected email "into/by" the "mailbox", right?
    Now what I could do is reading the email in OSX Mail, but when I want to label a selected email I go back to the browser and label it.
    It is so indirect and not handy.
    Please advise
    Thanks !

    Thank you for your reply.
    But, by your approach, then the selected mail is not longer in the "inbox", right ?
    In OSX Mail, I could move one mail into one mailbox and indeed in Gmail it will be moved into the corresponding folder. But it is no longer shown in the "inbox". Am I doing something wrong?
    I used to just "label" the selected mail in browser because in this way it still stay in the "inbox"  :>
    BTW, how in OSX Mail "label" a selected mail while still keep it in the "inbox" ?
