FrustratedReader,
I hear you. I didn't mean knock-off in a bad way. Just an imitation...and one that sounds like a better imitation than "the real thing".
I've used pretty much all of the old ones you were talking about...aside from the CPM version. I really loved WordPerfect.
And, I must say that I have become even more disenfranchised since Office has gone to the pastel, flat look. It's much too hard to differentiate where the menus begin and where the document begins.
We're forced to use the Office 365 at work and I hate it. Even simple things like inserting a bunch of cut rows seems impossible now.
I downloaded LibreOffice before I left for work, and now you've convinced me to install it and give it a go.
Doitsu, I downloaded your test document. I tried reading it with Icecream Ebook Reader, but it just kept jumping back to the contents. Then I tried it on my tablet using Google Play Books. It showed the hidden text for a split second, then went back to it hidden again, pretty much in less than the blink of an eye.
I did come across some footnotes in a book I just started reading that opened up a completely new page for the note, then went back to the story when I exited the bookmark. This might be an option, too. I'll have to see what I can find out by "disecting" that book and seeing how they did the footnotes.
If your option works, I'd definitely give that a look at, too. I like that option better than going to the blank page option.
Thanks, guys. I should have come here first. You've been a great help!
But I'm not opposed to anyone else chiming in with different suggestions, too.
Cheers!
