[PLUG] Rountripping redlining from M$Word through Start/OpenOffice


The subject line says it all, basically.

My publisher requires me to revise my manuscript using MS redlining,
and I have removed M$ office from my machine.

StarOffice will import MS redlining fine, and record changes, but when
it comes time to export from StarOffice to MS, either:

a) when exporting from StarOffice as RTF, the redlining information is
lost

or

b) when trying to export as Word 97 from StarOffice, the program hangs,
and then has to be re-installed (!!).

So -- how do I roundtrip redlining from M$ Word through Star Office?
