Turing to my reply - I'm sorry, export support from Ovation Pro *is* poor.

There has been no improvement in the last 10 years. Ovation Pro is open,
anyone who wants to can write code to export with styles or whatever.

Perhaps one could comment that there's a big gap between transparent
conversion from OPro to Word, and simply preserving effects like bold
and italics.

One might also wonder what is going to happen at the destination, are
they going to publish your Word document or just copy the text out of it
and process it themselves.


It is going to be added to other contributors and published, the editor has a Apple computer, she reported that should could see the pdf but could not import for editing.

The added problem is that it is not possible to save the raw text, at least I could not find a method, it always has the formatting so all over place.

In some documents the formatting/layout is important.

Perhaps there is a work around in exporting as a PDF and then importing into a windows program?? to produce a word document.
