- Any Psion 3 users out there sussed out how to save a file from Word in RTF format so that it can be loaded directly into MS Word on a PC?
-
- The only reference I can find in the User Guide is:
-
- Page 123:
- "If you use the 3-link, with a small software add-on to the Word Processor, you
- save Microsoft Word compatible files, and transfer then [sic] to and from
- desktop computers."
-
- So I looked in the 3-link manual, and it says:
-
- Page 5:
- "You can also exchange files in Rich Text Format (RTF), which includes style
- information. You can then use the file in Microsoft Word on a PC or Macintosh,
- or in any other program which understands RTF. A "readme" file on the supplied
- floppy contains more details of RTF."
-
- Well, my 3-link floppy has 2 readme files: MCLINK.DOC, and MCPRINT.DOC and
- neither of these mention RTF. Does anybody have any ideas?
