This is a great package for generating lovely documents and fits with the way I've always structured documents (using headings properly etc). Found it particularly useful for templated documents such as letters.Way better than all the distractions most other writing products have, especially as you are focusssing on content, rather than the layout.Can't give it 5 stars as there are few aspects a little lacking:- Writing longer, structured documents isn't quite so simple. There are ways around it (creating sub documents etc), but they're tricky. There's a document structure preview in Windows, but not yet in Mac.- Embedding and editing tables is pretty poor, mainly due to the constraints of Markdown. This would benefit from some sort of modal UI to preview the table and edit the cell contents, or at least paste tables from other apps. This is currently the weakest aspect, preventing me using it for technical writing.- Images are not quite so tricky, once you realise they have to be in the same folder as your document.- Creating your own templates is hard. To use iA Writer to any advanced level and customise the appearance, you need a reasonable knowledge of HTML and CSS, but most of the provided styles are rather lovely anyway. The process of developing and testing your own templates is pretty tedious. This should be far simpler.Anyway, whilst I've been using this product a lot for letters and general writing, there are cases when other packages are more suitable.
Thank you for this very detailed review with interesting feedback, Robert!
