Tho my book includes a chapter called 'Features I could live without', which was originally titled 'Features that Suck', but I toned it down a bit, hee hee. >I am working with various file formats and Word versions every day and I have more than once cursed upon certain Word 'features'.

I run 97, 2000, 2002, and 2003, and began troubleshooting Word in Office 95. I know of NO version problems that cause what this user is experiencing. I have no idea what the basis would be for this statement. >If it's a version problem, she won't be able to save as rtf anyway, I'm afraid. I never intended that it should be kept in RTF format.

However, saving as RTF was only one step. While I disagree with your statements, they may be true.

Plus RTF can easily get about ten times the size of DOC. If you have special characters, saving in RTF might corrupt them. >Doc-Format is not as exchangeable as RTF, but more stable.

Worth a try, although some formatting might mess up.Д«ut I assume this won't be the last document this user will handle, so you should find a long-term solution. The copy/paste version and save in other document method should work however. If it's a version problem, she won't be able to save as rtf anyway, I'm afraid. However: Doc-Format is not as exchangeable as RTF, but more stable. In addition, if you donвЂ™t use Markdown, youвЂ™ll wish you could disable BywordвЂ™s automatic highlighting of Markdown formatting characters-those characters will always appear in medium gray in editing mode.You have a good point about the background processes (e.g. However, you canвЂ™t edit in preview mode, and you canвЂ™t view that preview in a separate window, so you end up switching back and forth between editing and preview modes.

If you work with Markdown, youвЂ™ll like BywordвЂ™s ability to display a preview of what your document will look like when converted to HTML. Byword does offer a number of keyboard shortcuts for Markdown styles, letting shortcut users save a lot of time. A way to invoke the feature with a gesture or mouse button would make it more useful. Oddly, you need to use a keyboard shortcut to display this palette, so if you know the shortcuts for formatting text as bold and italic, or to increase and decrease font size, using the palette doesnвЂ™t save you time. (I especially appreciate Paragraph Focus, as iA Writer, a similar app, can focus only on the current sentence.) Full-screen mode works as expected, showing your text against a uniform background that fills your screen.ДЄnother feature unique to Byword is an iOS-style popover that you can invoke while in RTF mode to add styles. ( WriteRoom, a similar program, lets you make your own themes.) The default appearance is elegant, though, with BywordвЂ™s window showing nothing but a title bar on top with buttons for Find and full-screen mode, along with word and character counts at the bottom.Д«ywordвЂ™s Typewriter Mode keeps the line youвЂ™re typing at the center of the screen, while Paragraph or Line Focus dims all text other than the current paragraph or line, respectively, letting you focus on what youвЂ™re writing. You can choose your preferred font, but you canвЂ™t otherwise tweak these themes-for example, if you prefer a different font color or background. Within its no-frills window, Byword offers only two themes: a light one (black on a light-gray background) and a dark one (light gray on a black background).
