- I very much doubt that, unless you have a time machine, as we released
- Wordworth 5 (English version) earlier this week, the American and
- German versions will be released very shortly.

- As we have done with Wordworth 5 ;-)

- I think you`re being a little selective with features aren`t you? I
- could list a lot of very important features that Wordworth 5 has which
- Final Writer doesn`t. So you`re puttin in tables are you? isn`t that
- catching up with a feature Wordworth has had since version 3? and what
- about footnotes, on-line help, TrueType and PostScript font support,
- RTF support, and so on...

-
- Call our sales department today and order it (that will be the english
- version), or contact Soft-Logik and place your order for the US
- version.
