You might want to try Open Office. Itis a free, downloadable office suite
written in Java. It is very similar to Microsoft Office. Their download page
shows a version for Mac on Intel platform. I have used it occasionally, and
it seems pretty comprehensive.
I am not a Mac user and I am not familiar with Text Editor. I can't verify
that it will actually work for you. Since it's free, it's certainly worth
giving a try if you don't find another solution that you like better.
Good luck.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Questions about using a Mac for Bookshare
validation work.
Hello Fellow Bookshare Volunteers,
I would like to know how to do the proofreading and editing work necessary
for Bookshare validation on Mac OS MountainLion. Specifically, I am
interested in knowing how to use find and repave in Text Editor, or another
application, to work with page breaks, section breaks and other special
symbols typically found in scanned books. Any ideas would be appreciated all
over the place.
Thanks,
Darrell
