Nisus Writer Pro 3.0.2

Nisus Software has issued Nisus Writer Pro 3.0.2 with a lengthy list of changes for the powerful word processor (see “Nisus Writer Pro 3.0 Hits New Levels of Word-Processing Power,” 29 October 2018). The release updates the DOC/DOCX file converter to use the LibreOffice codebase to solve issues with floating text boxes, improves responsiveness when working in files with many or large tables, adds table menu commands to control most aspects of table cell borders and shading, works around an Apple bug that incorrectly flags words as misspelled in macOS 10.14 Mojave, resolves several issues with automatic numbers, adds an export file format called “Rich Text Format (limited features)” that improves compatibility with InDesign, and fixes a bug that could cause HTML and EPUB exports to produce invalid hyperlinks for footnotes and endnotes.
