I'm interested in an answer for this as well. I don't think I've ever encountered the problem in text edit, but in pages, words are frequently split between lines, and that bothers me a lot. I've looked everywhere for some menu or preference option that would enable wordwrap or some sort of equivalent feature within pages, but haven't had any luck. So, at least for me, I don't think word processing on the mac is practical. So, if there are any programs that you all would recommend that are accessible and actually honor wordwrapping, I'd really love to hear about them. I primarily work with .doc, .rtf and .txt files, and would like to be able to share them between the mac and pc if need be. Thanks! Missy

Hello Folks, I currently write a monthly column for my mother's web site, and I have unrelated projects I'll be submitting for publication in the very near future.. I'm using a Mac, and my mother is using a PC with Jaws. When I send her Word documents that I have created with Pages, many of the words get split between two lines. For instance, the word depression, is split between 'dep' and ression' on two separate lines. I also have similar issues with other word processing documents, n Pages and Text Edit, which I have written for my own use. The only writing software I don't have any trouble with is Mac Journal, Story Mill, and Mars Edit. I would really appreciate any advice you can provide. I originally got my Mac for use with audio production software like Pro Tools, but I would also like to use it for all of my writing, regardless of the platforms the people I am collaborating with are using.
