The formatting cleanup is very minor I have to do now. If I have to cleanup formatting anyway, I guess I'm OK with sticking with Mellel. I had to do some basic AppleScripting and Macros in Word for a Keyboarding class, but I'm not a big fan of having to spend time building them. Edited Novemby James I really don't get into programming and Macros, so I'm probably better off with Mellel. Likewise, I particularly enjoy the extant Dictionary/Thesaurus in Nisus Writer. Conversely, Nisus Writer easily allows me to add an editorial comment. Another pesky think I am observing today is Mellel's inability to allow me to make editorial notes.
MELLEL PRESENTATION PRO
Moreover, with Mellel having its own proprietary format, its documents are not compatible with DEVONthink pro (my research database organizer of choice). I don't particularly care for the search features of Mellel. One is the adaptation of Nisus Writer to previously established conventions (here I am thinking of Regular Expressions and. In the past several months, I've been using Nisus Writer Pro for several reasons.
I found its integration with Bookends a helpful time saver. I've used both for different writing assignments in the past. I've begun writing a Book Review in both Mellel and Nisus Writer today. Interesting that this thread should appear today. If more of my professors would get Macs, that'd be nice.
MELLEL PRESENTATION HOW TO
:-) The interface is "different", but I've finally mastered how to prepare a paper in it to LRU's specifications and only have to perform some minor cleanups in Word afterwards. While I could have used Word and worried about Mellel later when it came time for RTL, Mellel has much better performance than Word, and I wanted to get a grip on Mellel and become comfortable with it on a few smaller papers first instead of jumping into it when it came time for something big.
MELLEL PRESENTATION WINDOWS
LRU is primarily a Windows shop, so most professors use Word for their papers. I recently moved back to Hot Springs, Arkansas (my hometown), but LRU is allowing me to continue solely through online studies which has been great. I'm a couple semesters away at finishing my bachelor's program, then going in for Master's and eventually my Doctorate. I'm currently studying at Luther Rice University in Lithonia, GA. I'm also going to spring for Accordance 10 soon and buy into one of the new base collections to prepare me for the hardcore Biblical Language studies when they come up. I haven't gotten into RTL text yet, but I know it's coming and wanted to start using Mellel ahead of time so I'd feel more at home with it when the time came. Far superior to Word when I need to chunk away at large papers. Mellel has been excellent in terms of performance and stability. Should I give Nisus Writer Pro a look, and would it streamline my workflow better than Mellel, or since I've finally conquered Mellel enough to write my papers with, just stick with it? I'd love to hear people's evaluations on the programs. I've also seen on here where some are trying Nisus Writer Pro and really seem to like it as well.
So usually when I'm done, I do have to export to Word, then open it inside Word 2011 and cleanup the formatting slightly before sending it on.
It does save everything in a proprietary format. Usually before figuring out anything high end, I've had to consult the manual, or turn to a forum page (some of you on here REALLY helped me out recently when I needed it and it was MUCH appreciated!).Ģ. I've finally mastered enough of it where I can type my seminary papers easily (I've created a few "template" files). Performance has been great and I love the new iCloud integration.ġ. So far things have been OK with Mellel and my seminary papers. I'm doing this to prepare for when it's time for Biblical Language (such as Hebrew) work, as well as the performance of Mellel is definitely better than Word. I'm currently using Mellel for my academic papers for seminary. While I'm at the comparisons, I have another question.
