Guys, do yourself the favour.
I do not have any commercial link to Evermore and I do not sell this application. I bought my Home edition in 2007 for about US$100 in South Africa. I have not since paid any licence fees of any kind. I mention the prices only since it is relevant in decision-making. Home now costs US$14.95. Professional US$49.95.
You want professional? Dig this!! You want stable? You want no learning curve? You want all the goodies you had in MS Office? Get the site! http://www.evermoresw.com. The small differences like Alt-w-r-v as against Alt w-a-v to arrange Windows vertically in the app are really nothing to write home about. You can actually see your Spread, Word and Presentation in the same window together or singly. There is no need to open docs separately and do big transfers. You just click on a special toolbar with three icons.
It simply does not scrunch files in conversion. Make two folders; MSOffice and Evermore. Put the file you want to convert into the correct folder. MS to MS, EIO to EIO and convert to the other format. Click on the Convert icon on your Desktop and select the correct folders for origin and destination. Go. Once done, clear the original file from it's folder or it will get converted again. This is the only caveat I've picked up so far. You can e-mail the resultant .docs, .xls files and no one will know any better. Oh yes! Click on the return .xls, .whatever file and it opens as EIO. Edit, convert and post again.
You also have a Navigation pane that remembers your last work and you can click directly on the document you want to edit now. You also have a Macro, Science and Math editor. You can edit and extend the last two with your own images and stuff. Macro Ed goes without saying.
CutePDFWriter prints pdf - even just - pages like a printer from the dialog and FoxitReader opens the pages. Foxit's smaller and faster than Adobe.
Oh yes,you can down load a free 30-day trial.
It's written in Java and the site has support forums.
You want to be productive? Do yourself the favour.
