5.0 out of 5 stars Full featured replacement for MS Word - at much less $$$, March 30, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: MacJournal Chronicle Your Life (CD-ROM)

If you're not wedded to MS products then this is definitely worth your time to examine (they also have a trial period demo at their website... What I like: small (no 100 MB install), fast, flexible, "save as" includes a PDF option, nice dictionaries already included. They also have a utility called "Drop Doc" which will automatically convert any MS Word file (.doc) to an RTF file that is then opened flawlessly by Write. So, now you can convert all those old documents without any difficulties.

What can be improved: changing the view size (from say, 100% to 150% can result in some slight blurriness of characters, depending on your font choice). That's it.

And there is a MS Excel alternative (Mariner Calc) too.

Word and Excel can do a lot of fancy things, but I only need and use probably 10% of their capabilities -- and for me Mariner Write (and Calc) do more than what I need, for a lot less $$.
