Let us take Fioretti’s advice. Lets focus on using one good product. Let us standardize on formats that are supported as native to the software such as Appache OpenOffice.
I have found that the OpenOffice text application does a much more dependable job than Microsoft’s Word. I have used and own Nisus Pro - it is a multilingual word processor - as are almost all applications on my MacBook Pro and previous Apple products since 1984. I was often saving the files in rtf format, but now often use odt. I have been using FileMaker Pro since 1984 as well. I have tried the OpenOffice system, but it doesn’t come close to FMPro 12. I have tried a few other applications in OpenOffice, they are OK. But could become fantastic with our support.
