  1. No. I am sorry, but in this world of market forces, when there is a market leader it is not their job to accommodate minor actors. There's no reason why the HTML export from EN can't be made more immediately reproducible by another HTML reader, but that isn't the point. Microsoft is the market leader and their DOCX format sets a standard. EN needs to make sure that its exported notes can be read and reproduced faithfully by Word. There are open source tools to enable this, so it doesn't require vast amounts of expensive development time. We don't know what the long term disposal strategy is for EN but it's not going to be helped if the existing leadership fail to engage with market leaders.
  2. Try exporting as HTML one of the Evernote templates, such as a Memorandum. Open it in Word. Original in Evernote The imported HTML in Word QED - I rest my case. If you seriously think that those two are the same then I'm afraid I recommend a visit to SpecSavers. Regards, Graham
  3. I am sure that YOU do. However, (1) I often start something and then change my view of the best format for it - mindmaps, word documents, evernote records, an even handwritten, and (2) my intended audience can change too - something purely for me, might ultimately be shared with colleagues, students, editors and so on. Flexibility is therefore key, so telling me to decide before I start isn't very helpful. Yes, documents of any format can be stored as attachments, but when that happens there's little advantage to using Evernote over the usual Windows filing system - all EN is being used for is a glorified filing cabinet. As to exporting to HTML, I have yet to do this without having to reedit the document because of the number of formatting errors and embedded characters. Sorry, but I agree with others that an "export to DOCX" is long overdue.
  4. Since the latest update, I have noticed a substantial increase in the time it takes for EN to load after the laptop reboots, and also a substantial delay after I start typing in a note - both pre-existing and new. I was about to moan about this, when I accidentally launched the web-browser version. Wow! This was like a rocket. I am guessing that this is a synchronisation issue? Is there nothing that I can do to speed up the process on the app? The most annoying aspect is the time to edit a note - when I have something to type up I don't want to have to go and have lunch while I wait for the program to sort itself out. For the moment, I am going to stick to the browser version, but it would be great not to have to. Thanks, Graham
  5. I don't appreciate being logged out, having to find a password and relogin when I accept the invite to update. I have a class starting in 25 minutes and don't have time to faff around looking for this information.
  6. Me too. My device updated yesterday and since then I've not been able to save edits to existing notes. Cheers, Graham
