Hi, I have found docs to mostly be unusable on the Mac. A couple of things which seem to make it better. First I use chrome rather than safari. Second, you can go to tools/accessibility options when in a Google doc and uncheck the braille mode checkbox. Braille mode is pretty good on Windows but doesn't work well for me on the Mac. Hopefully that will help a bit, but for me I had to get a windows machine to really work with Google Docs. Brett
