Files From Home Computer Files From Home If you wish to be able to open computer documents on Suntree's computers, they should be saved in a format that our computers and applications can understand. All of our classroom computers have Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher). We can open those files regardless of whether they were created on a PC (Windows) computer or a Macintosh computer. If you have a home computer with Works, Word Perfect or some other word processor, when you save the file, be sure to tell it to save in "Word" format. If that option is not available, try RTF (rich text format) or just plain "text". We will definitely be able to open it, although it may lose some of its formatting (bold, italic, centering, etc.). At least we will get the important information. Once open, we can make adjustments if necessary. Of course, we can always open PDF files (Adobe Acrobat). We can open, view, and print the PDF files, but we cannot make any changes to them. Before sending any files in on flash drive, floppy disk or CD, be sure to run a virus protection program on your computer (and floppy or flash drive). While we have protection on all of our computers, it is good practice to be proactive in defeating the spread of computer viruses.
