I've got the following minimum requirements for a WP:
o Several thousand index entries
o table of figures
o table of tables
o table of contents
o foot/endnotes
o bibliography
o graphics blocks and in-line
o style sheets
o Full Mac editing/styles/etc.
o Several hundred pages total (a single file or mult. linked files)
Since FullWrite is still VaporWare and WordPerfect is already 2 months behind
schedule I've been using Word 3.01. It seemed to go well until I hit Word's
1MB limit. It seems pretty crazy that a program can read a file in but not
save it! Word also has a hard time with a large index.
Is there a program I'm missing or do I have to wait for FullWrite, InterLeaf,
or FrameMaker? What say ye? Is there a program I'm missing? Is Microsoft
going to update Word (Excel) to get rid of the 20b bug?
Thanks,
Steve Leeke
