General (Mac) Using File/Save As with PERRLA for Word (Mac Legacy Word App) Unlike the Windows version, PERRLA for Word on Mac has to run side-by-side with Microsoft Word. There are all sorts of technical reasons for this, but the simplest is that Apple and Microsoft forced us to move PERRLA out of Word.

Where is the Tools Menu in Microsoft Word 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019 and 365

The key feature of new ribbon interface in Word 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019 and 365 is that all the menus and toolbars of Word 2003, 2002, and 2000 have been categorized and organized in multiple tabs. In other words, because the items have been grouped under different tabs, the tools menu does not exist any longer.

• Use the familiar forms toolbar from older versions of Word in 2007. Add the Legacy Tools to your Quick Access Toolbar.
• Does Legacy work on a Mac? If you have a Mac with the Intel chipset and the new OS-X, you can install Windows, either under Parallels, Bootcamp or Fusion and you will be able to run Legacy with no problem. If you have an older version of the Mac OS, you will need to install a Windows emulator like Real PC, SoftWindows or Virtual PC, Legacy will.

I am afraid this 'hint' is simply incorrect. I have old Word 3/4 documents from 1988/1989 that Word 2011 (or Word 2008 for that matter) is simply unable to open, no matter which option I choose. When I try to open them, Word throws a 'Convert File' dialog box asking me to choose a file format to convert from, but 'Word 3 document' and 'Word 4 document' are not listed as options and 'Rich Text Format' does not work.

There is also an option called 'Recover text from any file' (which is apparently a file format in MS's parlance) but it fails to preserve accented characters, so even that option is useless. For such files, my only option is to force-open them in TextEdit, which at least preserves the accents. (Take that, Microsoft.)

Word 2011 is indeed able to open Word 5 documents, but not via double-click or drag-and-drop. You are obliged to go through the Open File dialog box for each file. If you make sure that the file name includes '.doc', you don't have to use any special options to open them. (Be aware, however, that some Word 5 documents will cause Word 2011 to crash or freeze, presumably because of the nature of some of their contents, so you have no guarantee here either.)

Microsoft's inability to support its own older file formats is scandalous, but we are used to such disregard for usability and data integrity from the world's biggest software developers, I am afraid.

In light of these shortcomings in Word 2011 and Lion's lack of support for older versions of Word, I made sure to convert all my older Word documents before upgrading to Lion:
