I hope to open pdf's with it, change them and then convert the file back to a pdf. Nisus Writer Pro is the powerful word processor for OS X. I am mainly interested in this app as a way of editing pdf's. I am not against Nisus having suggestions about what I'm going to type, in fact since I am a terrible speller this could be helpful, however, it is extremely annoying when the app changes a perfectly ok word into a word I don't want to type and the tone it makes is very annoying too. It makes a sound like the itunes search bar makes as it tries to do predictive searching. ![]() What is more if I type a word, such as hell, the app turns the word into hello when I hit space. When I type in text it seems that the app is trying to predict what I am going to say. When I type in text it seems that the app is trying to predict what I am going to say. I am playing with a free trial version of Nisus Writer Pro and everything seems to be working fine apart from one thing. I knew he was a fan of Nisus Writer, but other than the post that Hugh referenced in Macworld, I couldn’t find any thing other than his out of date book on Nisus.I am playing with a free trial version of Nisus Writer Pro and everything seems to be working fine apart from one thing. Also thanks for the info on Joe Kissell’s book. It never occurred to me to check for info on Nisus in the Scrivener forums. I will check over at the literature and latte site. I’m still a novice user - but I’m in the process of giving up MS Word for Nisus. So don’t be deceived by the application’s slightly retro user interface!) He says: “Nisus Writer Pro is much more than a word processor I like to think of it as a Programmable Everything Tool.” Apparently Take Control books are now created exclusively in Nisus Writer Pro.

In case, no one here can provide the info: Head over to the Scrivener forum at and ask in the “Software” section. Sorry to be OT, but this seems like a group that might have some Nisus info/pointers. However, I would like to be able to use templates and some macros and the documentation for those is spread out over the whole manual and what I am looking for is something that is more compact. The manual is availalbe, and I have downloaded that. However, it is also pretty powerful(At least, that’s what everyone says.)Unfortunately, I can’t find any decent references on using it. It has a cleaner interface than Word, starts faster and I like the fact that it doesn’t have the ribbon. In an effort to find software with which to write that is not quite as lumbering as Microsoft Word, I downloaded and bought Nisus Writer Pro. ![]()
