<p class="Paragraph">If you open a document in pure text format, <help:productname xmlns:help="http://openoffice.org/2000/help">%PRODUCTNAME</help:productname> creates a <help:productname xmlns:help="http://openoffice.org/2000/help">%PRODUCTNAME</help:productname> Writer text document from it and displays it on the screen. You can format in the same way as for <help:productname xmlns:help="http://openoffice.org/2000/help">%PRODUCTNAME</help:productname> Writer text documents as well as formatting that cannot be displayed in pure text files. This indicates that the document on the screen is already something more than (or something different from) the initial document, which may be present in pure ASCII code. So it should come as no surprise that the creation date displayed in the Properties dialog is "Now" - the document as it appears is in fact a new document! When you save the document you can decide whether to save it as a pure text document or as a <help:productname xmlns:help="http://openoffice.org/2000/help">%PRODUCTNAME</help:productname> Writer text document.</p>
