 * Tables: A place holder where the table should be will appear in Works, but the table borders and text will not appear.

The following is a list of features that transfer with some discrepancies:


 * Indented paragraphs will have additional tab settings on the ruler.
 * Set tabs will increase by .5 inch.
 * Each footnote will have a second reference marker or a second footnote reference in the body of the document and in the footnote area. For more information about converted footnotes, please see Q121158.
