Question

It's about time for me to bit the bullet and buy either iWork 09 or MS Office 2011. My main concern is rendering docx files (I've been using OpenOffice for many years, but the .doc and .docx rendering is still suspect).

How do they compare?

Does Pages render a docx file at least 95% accurate?

From the info online I understand that Pages cannot save in docx format.

Which do you prefer?

To clarify I'm talking about more complex layouts.

Was it helpful?

Solution

To answer my own question.

I've found that Pages does a much better job at rendering more complex DOCX layouts than OpenOffice currently. Pages does not save in DOCX format.

BTW.... You can get pages for $20 through the new Apple App Store :)
