Your instructor may ask you to save your file in Rich Text Format. 

Saving Documents in Rich Text Format (.rtf):

•  With the document open, pull down the File menu, go to Save As.
• In the Save As window that appears, find the place where it says something like “Save File as Type” or “File Format” and pull down the arrow next to it to reveal the menu.  This will give you many choices in which to save this document. 
•  Select “Rich Text Format” or “RTF.” 
• Give the document a name followed by .rtf, then click “OK” or “Save.”

**Note: Your instructor may use Assignments called Safe Assignments. These are very similar to Assignments and are submitted in the same way. However, the only difference is that submitted files are scanned for plagiarized material.
