Use Nisus Writer Express to read Unicode PC Word files
Authored by: dhayton on May 15, '03 11:09:56AM

If you haven't tried NisusWriter Express, I recommend it. I've been using the beta release for a few weeks now because I need access to the Greek unicode. For a beta release, it works quite well. I'm hopeful that the few kinks (most notably rather slow file opening times) will be ironed out in the final release.

Another alternative, though I can't speak to how well or if at all it opens Windows Word files, is Mellel. It sports many of the same benefits as NisusWriter (Unicode, right-to-left typing, etc). I don't care for the appearance as much (it has the brushed metal look of the iApps), but it works well.

My 2ยข.
