I ship my potential employer a fax machine with instructions on how to connect it up to their phone line. Once connected, I fax them my resume, 90's style.

.DOC is the standard, but .PDF's usually look nicer to read. You better include .txt format for the open source zealots of the world as well.

I hated my school's system. They accepted only doc and pdf and they had a 200k limit on it. My Word 2007 was obviously incompatible with their pathetic system so I had to export to PDF which came out to 206k. I was extremely pissed. 200k limit. What a joke.

I think .doc and .pdf are reasonable if you want to start with those. Txt is the next step. Then comes RTF and HTML. Cap it there.

Word 2007 can save in Word 2003-compatible format...

Shhh! The microsoft haters dont want to see that kind of blasphemy. They still want to say that 2007 is evil for making its new file types.

While it *can* save in 2003 format, I have noticed cases where it will still put 2007 features (such as color schemes) into the 2003 documents, this jacking the formatting.

Edit: I output to PDF, PS, and DVI.

Me too, althought I only output to PDF. It also makes getting a plain text version very simple.

HTML, PDF, and TXT. Luckily, I haven't had to do this for 6 years...
