I use AmiPro (from LOTUS) and like it a lot. It is FULLY windows compatible
and can import a wide variety of documents created by other word processors.
It is WYSIWYG and has so many features I couldn't begin to list them.
I'm just a happy customer of theirs (and the price was right - $20).

Does anyone else use AmiPro? Have you seen any problems with it?
I find it slow printing if I use a font/style my printer doesn't
readily handle. AmiPro does handle it but is slow printing. If I stick with
text my printer knows, its fine.

BTW my printer is Panasonic KXP1124 (i.e. not a laser).

Any AmiPro users out there?
