Office 2007 File Compatibility |
|
| |
With the release of Office 2007, Microsoft has introduced new Word, Excel, and PowerPoint file formats. These have an ‘X’ added to their file extensions (example: .docx, xlsx, pptx). Many students are already using Office 2007 and may provide you with documents in one of these new formats. Office 2003 applications, used by most UNF instructors, will not open the Office 2007 files formats. Faculty can require students to provide Office 2003 compatible files or they can have the MS Office Compatibility Pack installed on their office computer. Students using Office 2007 can follow the easy instructions located at http://www.unf.edu/dept/its/client_sw/office2007_compatibility/ to save their files so that they are compatible with Office 2003. If you wish to have the MS Office Compatibility Pack installed on your office computer or UNF laptop, contact your C-tech or the
ITS Support Center. After the Compatibility Pack is installed, you will be able to open, edit, and save Office 2007 documents. Questions may be directed to the ITS Support Center at ext. 4357 (HELP) or
its-support@unf.edu.
