Re: Any of you using Corel WordPerfect?

Two other possibilities ... if you want to consider getting a Microsoft Office Pro 2021 permanent license (not Office 365).

Some (not all) legit sites are selling "permanent" Microsoft Office Pro 2021 licenses for between $29 to $39 (sales from their usual $49).

I have purchased Softmaker's tools: https://www.softmaker.com/en/ as a pretty viable alternative.

Hello all,

I used to use WP back in the dark ages, but professionally got to using
Tandem's in-house doc formatting system, then Word :-(, then FrameMaker,
then DITA, but now I am retired and have a new Windoze 11 machine.  I do
not want to sign up for a subscription to M$ Office to use Word, but I
see that WordPerfect is still around and less than $100 for a one-time
purchase.  I liked WP in part because it offers the visible tagging like
HTML uses.

Any caveats to offer me about adopting WordPerfect?

TIA,
      Guy K. Haas
