attchments, .wps/.doc file types to open easily

Locked

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me what is the preferred universal file type to send as an attachment (like a resume,letter .doc ) to someone whether or not they have Microsoft Works 7.0 (Wordperfect) or Microsoft Word 2000. By saving a document as a “Word Document” in any application?

I didn’t know if “saving as”,and “sending” as an adobe PDF file,HTLM,web page,or Word 6.0,or just a word Document and attach to a e-mail message.

I guess the person on the other end has to have the application to open up and read it. Thanks! 🙂

If you dont know what the person has all document editors can say as .RTF this can be opened by any editor as far as i know the bad part is it doesnot keep formatting .doc is opened by most word, works wordperfect, sun office this will keep the formatting to a degree.

hope this helps
