Open Office and MS Word

[SkeeterUK]

I wrote a cv in open office for my brother. He wants to email it to potential employers and i can email it to them but im wondering if they will ba able to open open office documents with all the formatting. I tryed saving it as ms word but it lost the table formatting.

So is there anything i can do to get it converted to ms word with full compatability so it looks like how it was originally wrote? Or will ms office be able to open them ok with full formatting?

Hmm bummer, i guess theres no chance they would be using open office Or willing to download it for the cv

Hmm guess he will have to either mail it in paper form or ill have to get office and import it in and rewrite the messed up stuff grr.

I like the idea of the PDF way. Its widly used format so companys should be using it as standard. I did export it to PDF to see how it looked and it did look good with all correct formating as well.

Do you think CV's will be accepted ok as PDF format?
