Word Processing Software: Atlantis
I've been trying out various office/basic publishing software recently. (I have not been paid to review any of the software -- in fact, I've purchased the software myself unless it was free.)
I really, really like the Atlantis Word Processor. I've already used it for dozens of shorter (40 pages and under) booklets and documents. You can try it for free yourself for 30 days -- or you can even get it totally for free through some new deal that didn't exist when I purchased it.
The program has been very stable for me; works both on my Vista computer and on other earlier machines; and the staff has been very nice about answering emails promptly when I can't figure out things (also, posting on the forum on their website produces quick answers).
It also can handle hundreds of endnotes in one document, and files converted from WordPerfect to .rtf files using AbiWord come over to Atlantis fairly well (still need a lot of reformatting, but not horrible).
The one downside is that it doesn't seem to handle insertion of illustrations too well.
