Hi all,

I'm looking for a tool that will allow multiple authors - some on Macs,
some on PCs - to collaborate on a document.

Considerations:

Cost - can't spend a lot of $$ to get occasional users their own copy,
and we are scattered all over.
Fonts - need something that is identical on all systems.
Graphics - need to be able to edit graphics files, preferably inline.
Security - don't really want to have it hosted on an outside server
unless top quality security is available.
Features - needs to support hyperlinks, footnotes, headers, footers, etc.
Output - paper (PDF) and online (HTML)

Any ideas? Would Google Docs be suitable?

Thanks in advance!
