Okay - question for any computer/Microsoft wizards* out there. How do you convert an MS Word 2007 document (.docx format) into something readable by MS Word 2003? (Edit: I only have Word 2003, and a file in the 2007 format.) I've tried poking around the Office Update site, but I can't find any clear answers.
SON OF EDIT!: Finally found the proper converter plugin from the Office site. (Took too long to download. Darn vague descriptions...) BTW, the converter is here for anyone else that might need it. :>

Also, does anyone know how to check which fonts are included with a particular version of Adobe Creative Suite or Microsoft Office? I've got fonts missing, and I'm trying to figure out where they're from ...or not from, possibly. Edit: Solved by natashasoftpaw over on Twitter. For those curious, here's the font chart of fantasticness.

Thanks!

There should be an option for that when you click "Save As": "Word 97-2003 Document."

Whoops! I guess my wording was a bit vague there.

The document was sent to me in Word 2007 format, but all I have is Office 2003. (Which won't even recognize the file as a document...)

Ah. Unfortunately, I don't think it can be done. I'll defer to others on that, though. If need be, you can send the file to me and I can convert it, if it's a rush issue.

Never mind, I found it! (See updated entry.) Thanks for the offer, though!

Cool! :)

This may be more practical as rather than converting it lets you open the files in the 2003 versions.
