All such features in one product make the program unique among other editors. Since it is based on the RText editor, it is a complete source code editor for dozens of programming languages with syntax highlighting and code folding
Unlike WYSIWYG ("what-you-see-is-what-you-get") word processors (OpenOffice, MS Word), RTextDoc is designed for typesetting professional research papers and documentation manuals. LaTeX and AsciiDoc mark-up languages separate the content from the format of your document that gives you the opportunity to focus on the creative part of your work.
Supported platforms
RTextDoc runs on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Thus this editor represents the ultimate program for text documents which can be used on any hardware where Java is installed.
