Hi, Lissi.

What I do is write a short synopsis or a long synopsis if there isn't one.  I 
use MS Word so I can use the word count and spell check.  Word uses *.doc as 
the default file type whenever anything is saved, so if you're just going to 
use Word and you didn't want to change the file format, this would be the 
easiest and quickest way to save the synopsis.  Then, when you're ready to 
upload, you just open that file and select the text you need, copy it to the 
clipboard, and paste it into the appropriate field. 

Personally, I don't see any advantages to saving in TXT or RTF in this 
instance, but that's just my opinion.  <smiles>

  Dear Validators,

  It's my understanding that it's helpful to write a long synopsis in a file 
  that can be saved. I'm still confused by file extentions.

  If I were to write a synopsis in word using windows xp and jaws 6.0 and save 
  it in my validations in progress folder in my documents, how should I name 
  it? Then when uploading, do I transfer the synopsis by cut copying and 
  pasting? Or do I do it by file name...I know this question barely makes 
  sense, but I had to ask before I made the attempt.

  Always With Love,

  Lissi
