The new electronic grant submission system from NIH does away with the old forms (which were in Word format), and REQUIRES that text be saved without headers, footers, etc. It seems to me that this is a perfect time for all of us grant writers to finally dump Word and switch to Pages - which has bet...

All I did was Export to RTF, and Pages made an rtf file (not rtfd) that BookEnds could scan without any problem. However, the rtf file Pages made didn't have any figures in it.

Hi - You are right, the text citations are replaced in the NEW .rtf file. However, that file lacks all the figures that I inserted in the original document.

This is clearly a very popular topic. Maybe support for Pages is worth another try with Apple?

I have replaced Endnote with Bookends... which is great. Now I want to get rid of Word. Pages works great, but has no real Bookends (or Endnote) support. I need to create complex documents with embedded images (NIH grant proposals). Word is the standard, but has so many quirks I would love to replac...
