[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice/OpenOffice - bullets/numbering between Open* formats and MicroSoft

I use Ubuntu at home and the office but I do have to communicate with 
the outside world which unfortunately uses lots of MicroSoft Office in 
various flavors..

I've found that I can't (currently using OpenOffice) maintain bullets or 
outline numbering between .odt and .doc formats which is probably no 
surprise to anyone.  Sure would be nice if someone had a fix for this 
issue as I see it's not unique to me.  Especially since I only use 
Ubuntu and especially at home since I have no access to MicroSoft Word 
in any flavor.

My other issue is that with the OpenOffice that came native with my 
Ubuntu 10.04 I can't download LibreOffice for testing without blowing my 
OpenOffice away.  That doesn't seem like a very friendly way of doing 
business because what if I truly don't like LibreOffice once I get it 
loaded?  Not saying that I won't but I've been in the computer business 
since 1964 and know that not is all as it seems  8-)

At this point I'm working on a project that needs to get done in a 
couple of days that uses outline numbering that also needs to be 
accessible to MicroSoft users.  I'm sort of up a tree with not quite 
knowing what to do.

Any help appreciated.

Sincerely, David M. Cannell
