Publisher's description
From SoftMaker Software GmbH :TextMaker 2006: Desktop-Class Word Processing on Your Pocket PCHave you ever tried editing a Microsoft Word document on your Pocket PC? After all, your Pocket PC comes with Word Mobile or Pocket Word, and both are touted by Microsoft as mobile counterparts to Microsoft Word.If you in fact tried, you probably had an unpleasant surprise: Not only are they as limited as the "WordPad" program that comes with Windows for free, they are also very good at silently removing nearly all the formatting from your Microsoft Word files...SoftMaker offers something better: TextMaker 2006, the only word processor for Pocket PCs that actually deserves to be called a word processor.TextMaker for Pocket PCs offers the full feature set and convenience of Windows word processors such as Microsoft Word 2003: Comprehensive formatting capabilities.

A complete forms editor that lets you easily create forms with checkboxes, lists, and input fields. And much, much more!What's more: TextMaker reads and writes all Microsoft Word files seamlessly. Finally, you can work on important documents on your Pocket PC and be certain that all formatting or content is preserved.TextMaker for Pocket PCs has been created as a mobile equivalent to Microsoft Word 2003.

In its efficient use of space (both storage and screen) and equally efficient programming, it stretches the limited platform of the Pocket PC to new limits.

PDA Essentials: "TextMaker is the most feature-packed word processor to be developed for the Pocket PC platform and it has all the features that you would expect to find on a high-end PC word processor (and a few more besides)." Brighthand.com: "Leaves Pocket Word in the dust" Pocket PC Life: "This product is a must have for anyone who wants a real word processor and addresses one of the few weak points in the Pocket PC world." PocketAnywhere.com: "Worth every penny." PPCW.net: "Its amazing, really amazing and Im completely amazed." PPCSG.com: "Arguably the best Pocket PC word program. I would recommend it to anyone."
