Word 2016 for Mac solved the Hebrew problems. Since we are sharing workflows, I have to say that my experience differs from win's. Regarding Bookends: I have no experience. You can return to Word and find your file the way you left it.Įase of use: I still find Word easier to use. It takes about 10 seconds to open a 1500 page file again. Mellel has some limitations in iOS: at a certain point, when a file gets long enough, and you leave Mellel for another app, say to look up a word in Accordance, and you return to Mellel, you find your file has closed. IOS: Here, Word handles 1500 page files as well as Mellel. Stability: I find Word is more stable in OSX than it was in Windows. Overall, Word can do more, but Mellel is honest on its website about what it can and can't do. from 500 pages on, but is still fast for just typing, even on page 1574. Word as a desktop word processor: fast and crisp to about 500 pages, starts to slow down with complicated find and replaces, select all and reformat, etc. Mellel is still crisp and fast at 1500 pages. Mellel as a desktop word processor: the best for long documents. To be fair, I'll give Mellel credit if and when they resolve the issue. So far, I'm dumbfounded by this, and I've contacted Apple about it. BOOKENDS MELLEL HANGING INDENT FULL26 and 29 regarding an issue upgrading to the full version, and I haven't received a response. ![]() Mellel support: It just so happens I contacted Mellel on Mar. I've also used Word since almost its very beginning. Over the past two years I transitioned from Windows, which I used since it came out, to Mac. So, if you don't mind, let me know, if someone can divide his experience and workflow, I'll be grateful. BOOKENDS MELLEL HANGING INDENT SOFTWAREI don't know, seems to me something impossible to do personally, maybe I'm too allergic for that piece of software and it would seem to me as leaving all the comfort and stability I've found in Mac apps (I converted some 2 years ago.) ![]() I wonder if you could divide with me some your opinions? I've seen here and there some (if I can remember well, it is from here that I knew about Mellel, praised above all for handling well RTL), but these refer to previous versions. The developer responds after few hours addressing your problem directly. to test it I wrote a nearly 8000 words paper and it worked just fine.īookends has outstanding support. I found it very stable, straightforward and really doing what I want (without thinking for me as some other editors, if you know what I mean.). Perhaps I am missing something, but this seems an easy filter to implement that might make the switch to Mellel tab/indent format totally transparent to the user.I'm testing during these weeks Mellel + Bookends bundle. To make the paragraph work in Mellel, it should have a start margin equal to the indent (0pt), the right (reverse) tab in the same place (10 pt) and a combo tab from 20pt to 48pt.Īfter a little experimentation, it seems to me the solution is as simple as identifying paragraphs being pasted in RTL with tabs left of the start margin and then moving the start margin to be equal to the indent and replacing the rightmost left (regular) tab with a combo tab between it and the location of the former start margin (which could, in theory, be in the same place). Would it be possible, when pasting RTL text, to convert paragraphs with tabs left of the hanging indent to use the Mellel "Combo Tab"? I am often copy-pasting text from the (English) Psalms from Logos Bible Software, only to find that the indentation gets all messed up because of the difference in how Mellel and Word (and most other word processors) handle tabs left of the hanging indent.įor example, I have paragraphs with an indent at 0pt, a start margin at 48pt, a right (reverse) tab at 10pt, and a left (regular) tab at 20pt. ![]()
