Is there anyone who can open a .dot file and email it to me as a pdf or other workable format? I work in Corel Draw x3. Hoping that someone here can help.
Please private message me and I will email file directly to you. Thanks....IDEAGUY

I no longer have Word.....You should be able to use Google Tools.....But there is a good chance what you end up with will not be useable for much.....

If you dont have MS Word, then go to OpenOffice.org and download that program. It is a great alternative to Word/Excel, far better than Works, and is open source, so its free!

I just got the file back from the client in a .doc format. I copied it and dropped it into my Corel X3 program. Then, I converted it to a bitmap and then had the program redraw it. The main part of the logo came out perfect, the remaining portion I will need to just typeset. So it worked out well.. Thanks everyone for offering to help me. I do appreciate it! You are all so very kind....IDEAGUY

DOT files are Word documents saved as "templates"
