Affinity Publisher v2 (Trial) won't place Word document (Libre Office doc)

[jlgarcia]

Jut installed Affinity Publisher v2 as trial and started a new document, 8"x10" 150 pages, as a test and then File > Place... , open the files dialog and no .doc documents where visible in the list. I selected all the options to no avail. (Screen capture 1).
Then I write the file in the file name of the Place files dialog and it throw me an error. Apparently Affinity Publisher do not imports(Places) Word files. Is that an error? or it needs the full version to work or what happened?
(Affinity Photo and Designer are not installed yet.)

Thanks for any help.

You can also save and import the file in .rtf format as an exchange format.

Yes, you can. But using DOCX will give better transfer of the information, as more functions are supported for import when using DOCX.

And I think one can export in the docx format too from libre office.

Yes.

Well, it worked. Save as .docx format and it get imported. I run out in some other problems like images not importing and most of the text not appearing, but I'm going to keep trying.
Thanks for the help.
