In the past I have used both Pages on the Mac & Microsoft office/Word on the Mac & PC. Now I do any of the heavy stuff only in Microsoft Word for PC just because it's the easiest place for me to do the "heavy lifting" despite being a dedicated Mac user. Both Microsoft Word for Mac & Pages are workable, but they had so many layers and have so many caveats that working with my dyslexia just makes them tougher to use. Having said that, if I get a book that only needs like proofreading I always prefer working on my MacBook Air, so then I will proofread in Microsoft word for Mac. Thanks!
