From: Howard on 3 Jul 2010 12:27 Hi guys, Yes .. trying tp get away from Word yet again... but I NEED to produce good .doc docs for interacting with professional clients etc. Pages doesn't produce accurate .doc documents. It changes tables for the start. So my Q is which word processor produces the best and most accurate .doc documents ? Howard

Exactly the same version of word as them, running on the same system as them. Beyond that there are going to be differences, so the closer you can get to their setup, the better. -- Woody
