What about FullWrite Professional. It took nearly 3 years for it to finally come on the market. And though it was way ahead of other word processing software, the buginess and ram requirements worked against it.

Click click click. Can't you fit any article on a single page? Maybe it's time to fire your editor.

Hey Howard, try the "print" button under the title. It'll give you a nice single-page preview that you can read and save easly.

I couldn't agree more to what howard said. And to jdcasst02. Why would anyone want to print something out that they can read online just to have it all on one go? Just saying, and I dont mean anything bad by it.

I agree too - what's with you fragmenting all your stories over 10 pages or so?
Far out - you're gonna eat my meager 1/2 GB of data allowance! Not even CNET does that!

<sigh> Children, click the 'Print' icon (on the article, not your browser) and you shall get the full article in a one-page preview on screen.

And if you need to save bandwidth, try disabling images and flash on your browser. <sigh x2>
