Atlantis Word Processor Forum

Even though I never got any answer about what was causing exception errors in Atlantis when I last posted, I did get beyond it for some time. NOW It spawns exception error and closes the file EVERY TIME I try to paste text in from a different document. Yes, it's reproducible...every time I paste ...

I'm sorry, but I have used the search and the file is not on my computer. The file name is on the "recent" list for the computer, but clicking on the name says that the file is not longer available. Also, the file name is NOT on the Atlantis recent files list. It is definitely not in the folder ...

System extremely slow; takes forever to open or save a file (.docx).

2. Save as .rtf
3. Close the file
4. Open the .rtf in Atlantis
5. Save as .docx (I haven't tried ...

The current format painter only duplicates other easy-to-apply formatting. I'd very much like to see a format painter as is in MS Word, where you can click on a format in the document and then apply that whereever you need it. Thanks!

I was working on a file (.doc) that opened just fine one minute and the next time I went to open the file, it spawned "exception" errors (each time a different number "location." I can still open same file fine in MS Word. I saved it as a copy and deleted the last chapter I'd added, back to a form ...
