Try this: http://wps-community.org/ I have asked a friend who uses it, if this is what he uses and if it is free. He has converted everything he did with MXG to WPS.

I don't know if he couldn't find the company, or if they didn't respond to his inquiries. In any case, I can do anything that I want. So long as the cost, to the company, is no more that U.S. $0.00 .

But it is something that my manager is sensitive to. Another person, off line, showed me an MSU graph that my manager would swoon over. He uses some RMF software to help produce it.
