Nisus can accomplish the conversion of an all UPPER CASE document to lower case (or vice versa) fairly simply. Nisus provides a "lowercase" command. After applying "lowercase" to the document there is a macro that is provided that will capitalize the first letter of the first word in every sentence. From there it is only minor editing to finish off the document. Nisus can read Word 3 and 4 file formats and write Word 3 file format. If you, or any other folks on the net would like to try out a demo copy of Nisus send me e-mail. Any questions about Nisus call Paragon Concepts tech. support, it's free.

I've gotten the demo disk and tried Nisus out, but I have two
questions:
1. Can Nisus read and write RTF?
2. Can Nisus write "text-only with line breaks"?
