Mini-Byte: Saving Documents

Posted by tekkieteacher on October 1, 2007

The other day I was asked the question, “How do students download Word documents from SchoolFusion if they don’t have MS Word installed on their home computer?”

What a great question! A lot of our studentsĀ are using other, less expensive, word processing alternatives.

To help these kids out, you can save your Word documents as “rich text format”, or .rtf. That will retain most of the formatting and is recognized by most word processing applications.
