Greetings From Nisus Land
More Ch'i For Everyone!
I am in a grumpy mood today. I shouldn't be, since there are a lot of exciting things going on around here. But yet, here we are.
First, a significant other who shall remain nameless ate all of my mac and cheese dipped in chocolate syrup. The fact that she is now very ill does not quite make up for it.
Second, my Feng Shui workplace has been disturbed! My ch'i is completely out of whack now. I hope those of you who are responsible are very happy!
See what I mean? A very bad day indeed.
was very upset in general until I was finally shown something that made me very happy. No, not MXC reruns, but a new version of our flagship word processor! Read below for all of the details, but I will give you the short version: if you have been longing for better word document translation, you need Nisus Writer Pro 1.2.
Read below for the details.
Nisus Writer Pro 1.2
Better Word Translation, Flesch, Macroize, and More!
We are very happy to announce that a new version of Nisus Writer Pro is now available.
Nisus Writer Pro 1.2 adds a few new features, many bug fixes and other fun stuff. The biggest change is in our file importer. We have replaced the old importer with a completely new one that greatly improves file translations, especially for .doc files. Additionally, we have added export as Word file format (.doc) and the Open Document (.odt) format.
The Table of Contents feature has a few new options: tab/backtab can be used to promote or demote TOC levels, and TOC entries can be rearranged by drag and drop within the navigator pane.
Included among the new features are Flesch and Kincaid reading ease scores, automatically updating time stamps, additional backup options, and a Macroize menu. Document properties (author, company, copyright, etc.) can now be edited and inserted as variables. Our application updates are now managed by the popular Sparkle framework.
Macro fans will note that there have been additions to the Nisus Macro Language. A host of bug fixes and other enhancements have also been included.
The full list of features and fixes can be read at our Pro release notes page: http://nisus.com/pro/releasenotes.php.
Nisus Writer Pro 1.2 is available now from our store for only $79. An upgrade from Express 1.x or 2.x is available for $45. A three license Family Pack is $99. Versions on CD are available for an additional $10.00 plus shipping.
We also have a Nisus Writer Pro printed manual available for only $25 plus shipping.
This release is a free update to current license holders of Nisus Writer Pro.
Nisus Writer Pro is a Universal Binary and requires Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or above.
You can download this new version from the Pro product page.
Now can you see why I am so happy? This new version is great, and now you folks can see for yourselves.
Go download now! And if you like what you see, please tell a friend!
Nisus In The News
In Praise of Pro
Lou Lesko is a photographer who writes. Or a writer that shoots photos. Anyway, he does both, and he found time to write about Nisus Writer Pro on his blog:

In the post, Mr. Lesko writes "Nisus is as simple or powerful as you need it to be with a learning curve that makes sharpening a pencil seem complicated." Music to my ears!
Thank you, Lou, for writing such nice things about us and our product.
