WordPerfect may have had its faults, but at least instead of meaningless
widgets, it had a "view source" option that let you delete or move the garbage
that was corrupting your layout.  A document I converted from WP to Word
retained its inline layout of five images, but for no intelligent reason, Writer
insists on dropping the fifth below the rest and refuses to cooperate or help
with rectifying the situation.  The View menu gives nothing but useless options,
as does the Format menu.  Naturally, there is no <INPUT TYPE="FILE"> to let me
show you what the problem is!  That would make too much sense!

I have yet to find a file that looks the same in Writer as it does in Word, and
now that Office has bitten the dust for no apparent reason, I'm working blind on
documents that need to look good in Word, even if I can't see them myself!
