I have used the free version at times in the past and have found it works well. I'm not a power user (with regard to word processors) so I can't really comment with great detail. (I think one thing that moved me away from Jarte was that when I was trying to paste a rich text document's text into something like, say, Outlook's email client (compose window) it lost all formatting. That may be what is supposed to happen in such cases, but it made Jarte a bit less usable for me at the time.) A good review of Jarte (including helpful user comments) is here.

Thanks, both of you, for your suggestions. Saving the source formatting didn't help, so I tried "match destination formatting" instead. That did move the words out of the margins, but it left those margins much too large. Perhaps because the original files were in Courier, and Times New Roman is my default font in Word. But, if I change it back to Courier, all of the problems return. I also tried "keep text only," but it seemed to have the same results as "match destination formatting." I also clicked on the paragraph symbol that shows all the background stuff, and there appear to be a lot of dotted lines in these documents that I don't recall seeing in any of my regular Word documents. Is there any way to get rid of those? (As these files are already saved on my computer as text files, saving one again in Notepad didn't help.)

Oh, but you can add "Bon" to your spell check! Highlight your name and right click, then click "add to dictionary". I updated last week and I am loving the spell check :). Rebecca

Got to second Lilo. Don't know the writer and since his quotes are more or less autobiographical, can try to understand where he is coming from but each writer is an individual with his or her way of writing. Don't know where the "1" is coming from and a new paragraph started with "2." Oh well.
