having seen a few post regarding tabs, page numbering and other such matters on the list of late I thougth I would add a few comments here. TextEdit is a fine little program but it is not a full scale word processor. For that something like OpenOpffice beta 3 is a better choice. Or you could move all the way up to the king of document processing and use TeX and/or LaTeX.

These are true document processing tools which, once learned will produce document of unrivaled quality. TeX and LaTeX. are command driven system well suited for the blind who will be assured of perfect output by them. The learning curve is steep bu you will be rewarded in the end for learning it. These programs can handle things like footnotes, references, bibliographies and whole books in a way that no other methods can. You can even typeset mathematics with them.

TeXShop is the leading implementation of TeX on the Mac, it is free and VoiceOver compatible and can be found here: http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/
