Tip of the Week

As you all know, we have an earlier version of Office, so if someone sends you a Word document (.docx) you need the converter to open it. Not a problem, but I recently learned something interesting I'd like to share. The .docx file is actually Microsoft's version of a zip file. So, if you download a .docx file and then rename it to a .zip file, you can double click on the file and open it. Not only that, but you will see all the files separated. For example, if there is an image in the document. It will be saved in it's original format (ex: .jpg). That way, you can edit it in Photoshop. If you save it and rename it as a zip file, you do not need the converter.
