[nfbcs] Voiceover with Word

[Ryan Mann]

If she writes a document in TextEdit, she will be able to send it to people using Windows and they will be able to edit it in Word.  TextEdit saves documents in Ritch Text format which is a format that both Word and TextEdit can work with.

If she wrote a doc in Text Edit and sent it to me, who uses Windows, would I be able to easily read it, possibly edit it, and send it back to her?
