IBM Lotus Symphony


Converting Microsoft Office 2007 files

IBM Lotus Symphony supports interoperability with Microsoft Lotus® Symphony™ documents, though there are some features in Microsoft Office that are not supported, or are only partially supported. As a result, converted files may require some degree of manual reformatting. The following tables provide an overview of Microsoft Office 2007 feature support in Lotus Symphony.
