And BBEdit reacts extactly the same way...

Well... yes and no... MSWD's for Mac RTF format handles both tables and 
images, but the Windows version doesn't handle images and styled tables 
made on a MSWD for Mac (or any other Mac app) when these are saved in RTF.

To use Mac created RTF files with fully content it's just to rename to 
.doc and even styled tables are kept styled in MSWD for Windows... - The 
other way round - i.e. opening a formatted RTF file created with a 
Windows Word will always open correctly in both MSWD 2008/2011 for Mac 
as well as in NisusWriter Pro ver. 1,4 and later.

Cheers, Erik Richard
