Intermittent "Save as Text File" -> RTF Problem


RPat

Recommended Posts

Select on one of the Journals, in this case, Emmaus, Volume 6, Winter, the article "The Nature of True Worship". Option-; to select Articles scope. * is in the search bar, hit return, the full article shows.

 

Choose File -> Save As Text File -> RTF; Enter "True Worship" as the name and save on desktop.

 

I then go to open with TextEdit, Word or Pages and it won't open. TextEdit says "True Worship could not be opened because it is not in the right format." the file might be corrupt, truncated or a different format than you expect"

 

I'm stumped! It doesn't happen all the time.

 

I then try to save it as a a "Plain Text" and I can open the resultant file.

 

After saving it as a "Plain Text", I Choose File -> Save As Text File -> RTF, put a filename in and it seems to work.

 

OK, I just tried a different Journal article and the RTF save failed the first time like above; the save to Plain Text worked and then saved to RTF and that worked and TextEdit opened the file.

 

Any ideas?

 

I would venture something in the text engine isn't being initialized..until the first plain text save.

 

I can send the resultant files in an archive if that helps.

 

Mac OS X 10.4.1

Accordance 6.6

(And yes, Accordance was reinstalled last week).

 

Help??

 

Thanks,
