I cannot state that iWork Pages is going to be better as I haven't tried that yet. But, in today's environment, that really isn't practical. I will have to say that, as long as I stay with OO or NeoOffice, they are fine. My friend sent it back to me and when I opened it with OO, they were out again, even though my friend had not tried to correct anything. Then I sent the document to a friend who opened it with Word. In some ways, OO seems to have better controls for positioning objects and pictures than does Word, so it really wasn't difficult to get them back where I wanted them. When I opened it with OO, they had moved. I creaed a document in Word and carefully positioned pictures and artwork to be next to the relevant text. IN fact, I have OO 3.0 and it still has difficulty in keeping graphics in place when going to Word and back. Thanks to all for your suggestions and I'm still open to ideas, if anyone knows something else.Įric S, Thanks for the reply. I also tried Nisus Writer pro and it was even worse in the graphics department, so that's out of the running. So being able to do some things with Find and Replace is a big help. I have a lot of ebooks, (over 700) and I've found that, unless graphics are involved. O think both Open- and Neo-office can sirt of do these with some involved work-arounds, but that's not the same as having it native to the app. Or sometimes, I want to replace paragraph marks with space after with two paragraph breaks with no space, as those work better when converting to. txt or other files, I want to replace multiple line breaks with just one or two. ![]() They also have some shortcomings in Find and Replace.įor example, neither can do manual hard or soft line breaks. ![]() OpenOffice and its clone, NeoOffice cannot really keep graphics stable going back and forth to Word.
