Monte Carlo simulations have been used to study magnetic ordering in coupled anisotropic ferro/antiferromagnetic (FM/AFM) films of classical Heisenberg spins. We consider films with flat interfaces that are fully uncompensated as well as rough interfaces that are compensated on average. For both types of interfaces above the ``N\'eel temperature'' we observed order in the AFM with the AFM spins aligning collinearly with the FM moments. In the case of rough interfaces there is a transition from collinear to perpendicular alignment of the FM and AFM spins at a lower temperature.
