Did you know that @libreoffice will cheerfully open WordPerfect files created by 34 year old software? Quite remarkable.

@bert_hubert @libreoffice

Another feat is that it opens microsoft files with less issues than microsoft software can deal with.

@SpaceLifeForm @bert hubert πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί Years ago I was regularly asked to help with Word files that were damaged and that Word couldn't read anymore.

OpenOffice read them without a problem, saved them and then my colleagues could read them again with their inferior software.
@hans, @bert_hubert , same here. Once a friend working for a document for UNESCO contacted me in panic saying that Word had corrupted the document and she could not open it anymore.
I opened it in LibreOffice, saved it again in .docx, sent it to her.
She could open it, nothing was lost.
