Changes in Version 1.09

    1.  Paragraph Indentation - A Tab marker is no longer an automatic
        indentation point, but can be become by either of the following:
            a. By pressing Ctrl+Tab on an existing Tab marker (or Ctrl+Tab
               twice, one to create a Tab marker and the second) to make it
               an indentation point.
            b. By setting the "Indent point" option of the Tab stop in the
               horizontal ruler (button 2 while pointer is on Tab marker).
               Now, every Tab to such a Tab stop will make it an identation
               point.

    2. Fill-in fields reworked to accomodate many requests.

        Date and Time formats can now be created with great flexibility. The
        format components can be displayed in decimal, roman and verbose
        form.  Verbose for the year is available as well and shows one of
        the Asian calendar's year names.

        Page numbers can have an individual offset in addition to the
        document page number offset.  This allows for sub-numbering.
        Roman display of page numbers is available sa well.

    3. Automated page headers and footers.

    4. Improvements to Spell Checking messages and operation.

    5. Improved Installation and Icon setup.

    6. Split Text Cell function added to pop-up menu.

    7. Preference setting for Bitmap printing.
       NOTE: This is to accomodate the printing with bitmap graphics on
       different OS/2's and with different drivers.  IBM is working with us
       to permanently resolve all bitmap printing problems.
       HINT: If bitmaps do NOT print correctly, try setting your video
       driver to the standard VGA which came with OS/2.  IF bitmaps now
       print correctly, then the problem is with the video driver.

    8. Various problems resolved relating to selecting and deleting.

   Compatibility issues with versions 1.07 and 1.08:

    9. ANY FOOTNOTE/ENDNOTE NUMBERS CREATED PRIOR TO 1.09 MUST BE ERASED
       AND ENTERED AGAIN.

   10. ANY TAB STOPS DEFINED PRIOR TO 1.09 MUST BE SETUP FOR INDENTATION.
       (See 1 a. and b. above).
