Using a Word Processor on Contracts

NOTE-- We retired MacNail construction software in 2000, and replaced it with Goldenseal: a complete, integrated business software package for Macintosh and Windows. Goldenseal handles construction spec writing, plus accounting, construction estimating, and project management, It also exports contracts to a word processor, where you can format the text however you'd like.

Formatting Contracts with a Word Processor

Contracts created in word processor (text) format can be formatted and editing with any word processor program.

Popular word processors on the Macintosh include:

* Microsoft Word (part of Microsoft Office)
* OpenOffice
* SimpleText (a very simple word processor)

Popular word processors on Windows Include:

* Microsoft Word (part of Microsoft Office)
* OpenOffice
* Wordpad (a very simple word processor)

Any of these programs can be used to change the text and appearance in a contract created from the MacNail construction management software.
