Hi! OK I've got Nisus writer Pro! As part of a software package but really have not used it! But if you want to find out if [A] it does what you want [B] and worth the price to buy it! You can try it out for 15 days [they say the demo is fully functional! And just nosing around my copy I have not came across anything that VO cannot read so looks very accessible and I do believe Nisus are hot on VO! Anyway here is a link to their home page and you can find a download link there!
http://nisus.com/pro/ So for 15 days you should find out if it is worth it to you!
