Of cause the nice thing with OpenOffice is you just hit the .pdf button 
on the top and out that copy comes FOC!

I've finally converted a couple of my customers from Office and they now 
create all the pdfs directly without me having to try and sort the 
layout mess from the .doc files :) And the html copy is much more usable 
as well.
