Word docs compatibility

Hi all,

After installing Word 2013 in my PC a few days ago I noticed that some worksheets change layout when uploaded to the site. In some cases, text boxes & other features even disappear. The most noticeable problem is your words seem to be crammed together, with no blank spaces between them, that is

yourwordsseemtobecrammedtogether

Is this happening to you? The solution is simple; when you finish creating your doc...

> go to FILE (top left corner)

> SAVE AS

> choose a folder

> on the window that opens, select the WORD 97-2003 option (or similar) in the document TYPE tab

> If you had already saved the doc in a more recent Word format, you just have to re-name it,

> SAVE

Hope that helps,

Cheers
