Is anyone here using a current Windows 7 version of Microsoft Word? I rarely use Word and my own version is 10 years old.

I'm adding formatted text capability to the sketchboard and I would be grateful for a few test RTF files saved from the current version of Word. Files from Word seem to vary in format so much that it is a minefield to keep tabs on. :)

If you can help, please attach here a short sample file from Word saved in RTF format (not doc) and containing some formatted text, different fonts and colours, tables, paragraph indents, with and without coloured backgrounds, etc.

I can then test how well it will import onto the sketchboard.

This will make it easier to add attractive notes and titles to the sketchboard when used for display; to add locking tables for signal box diagrams; etc. The existing text items are a bit limited in this regard.

But please don't include pictures in the file as they cause the RTF and sketchboard files to be massively inflated. Pictures can be easily added to the sketchboard using the existing functions.
 
But please only if you are using the latest version of Word.

Many thanks for your help.

regards,

Martin.

In the new simple RTF editor:
