Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Discusses ways to help ensure that word processed documents can be archived and successfully retrieved regardless of their original programme. Notes that when archiving word processed documents it is preferable to convert files to a neutral format or to a file type in which the formatting information is embedded in the document as easily recognisable tags and the text as plain text which can be extracted if necessary. Recommends that: formatting and special characters should be kept to a minimum; external files should not be embedded into the document; and paragraphs should be numbered to help cross-referencing. |
