I downloaded Jarte and it looks like a good program. However, it will not open my Word 2000 documents. I will paste in information I got from Jarte upon trying to open a file and then information from CNET about the converter pack. I am reluctant to install the converter pack since it does not mention whether it works with Windows 7. It was released in 2007, probably before Windows 7 was released. It may work and it may not. I have not decided if I want to try it or not, but I do like Jarte in the meantime, other than the fact that it won't open my doc files. That is the fault of Microsoft and not the company who offers Jarte.

Joni Update (Aug 8, 2011): A recent Windows update has disabled Jarte's ability to use the graphics filters in the Office Converter Pack. Therefore, Jarte can no longer display non-bitmap images in Word 97-2003 binary DOC files. The word around is to use Microsoft's free Word Viewer program to open those files. Jarte can open Word 97-2003 DOC files created by the Word word processor if Microsoft's Office Converter Pack is installed on the computer. The Office Converter Pack is no longer available at Microsoft's web site, however it can still be downloaded from CNET's Download.com web site using the link below. Close and restart Jarte after you have installed the Office Converter Pack and Jarte will then be able to open Word 97-2003 DOC files. Click here to go to CNET's download page for the Office Converter Pack More information about the Office Converter Pack is available at Microsoft's Office Converter Pack information page.

Subject: RE: JAWS and Jarte The page at http://jarte.com/features.html clearly states that Jarte opens .doc and .docx files. And that is the free version. The $19.95 version does all that besides allowing for customizable keyboard shortcuts, autocorrect and the storing of clipboard data between sessions.

processing program, then Jarte works even better than MS Word. It is alternative to Word since I may not need to buy that program unless my _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list Jfw@... http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list Jfw@... http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com |
