Re: Comparable App
Hello all, this thread is a perfect example of an inappropriate named one. Jim, I'm not picking on you specifically here. Especially because yours isn't the only message of this type which has been posted of late. However I really really really need to stress to everyone on list that appropriate subject lines be used. This will greatly help those who have a lot of email from this list and others to go through be more efficient. A better subject line might be, a word processing iOS app comparable to the PC. It's possible that someone who knows nothing about word processing apps will read this because it doesn't give a description. Then they will be annoyed because they wasted their time. Or, the other more important one, it's possible that someone will have an answer to a great word processing app, but they might skip this generic sounding subject line and then you might not get a really good answer. I hope this helps. -- Raul A. Gallegos Teacher: Imagine you are in a world with dinosaurs and a dinosaur was going to eat you. What would you do? Boy: Easy, stop imagining.

My only complaint with note master (which I brought to the attention of the developer and was told basically too bad) is that I'm still using word 2003 which doesn't use the docx format without a special plugin.

RE: Comparable App
Right, I also use Office 2003. The compatibility addon is free from Microsoft to allow word 2003 to read and save in the docx format. In my world I had to install that addon because too many people had moved on to Office 2007 and now 2010 and I couldn't read anything they sent to me. I have no plans to upgrade to 2007 or 2010 because I hate the way they handle Email and I'm not overly fond of the ribbon stuff, though I function with it at work where we have to use Office 2010.

RE: Comparable App
Yes, I believe that is correct. It used to be only Google Doc format, so this is a big improvement. He added the ability to sync with DropBox and use the .docx format for that. Just remember that tabs and other formatting will be stripped out at this point. They are just plain text files with a .docx extension.
