WPTools 5 works completely WYSIWYG, this means the text is printed with the same line- and page breaks as displayed on screen. The editor supports fast zooming and scaling of the text. Header and footer can be edited in the page layout view - like in the "big" word processing applications the end user was working with before. Only WPTools 5 supports 'multi view': the same text can be edited or displayed by different editors - working with different layout modes or zoom options!
One of WPTools greatest strength is its impressive ability to mix and merge text with other textfields or data.
Serial letters or reports can be created in a matter of seconds. And these letters and reports can be processed even further - since they are real texts and not just the graphic files some other report generators produce.
