Excellent software, the only real hiccups I have found were how it handles larger documents, you need a fast computer for them... and setting a default language that is not your System Language seems to be impossible...though you can manually do it each time...

Otherwise, a top of the line product well worth trying...

Too basic. More of a Wordpad competitor.

The only drawback is that support for ODF file format isn't mature.
