There’s no accounting for taste. The mere fact that something pops up on its own bothers me. TextMaker’s context menu does essentially the same thing, but it only appears when I call it up. But when it comes to things like that, everyone has their own preferences.

I must admit that I’m not a fan of any controls that appear automatically (without me doing anything). That’s the typical MS Word way of imposing its suggestions on the user. I prefer SoftMaker’s approach, where you have to explicitly call up what you want. Just my 2 cents.

If FlexiPDF's virtual printer doesn't meet all your needs, you could try eDocPrintPro (https://www.pdfprinter.at/en/). This is a free, highly flexible virtual printer which allows you to embed fonts and define page sizes. It hasn't let me down yet.

Hi, I wanted to know if it is possible to copy and paste formats in TextMaker, just like it is is possible to do in Word. I can't find a way to do this in either the Mac version or the ipad version.

As every bullet starts a new paragraph, you can solve this via paragraph format by inserting an appropriate paragraph spacing before.

A sample document would be helpful. If the document contains private information you might replace the text with something harmless and retain the document structure.

Are you talking about apostrophes or about quotation marks? If your problem is that quotation marks are looking like „this“, go to Tools > Options, Tab “General”, click “Auto correction...” and set “Smart quotes” to your language, “Auto” or “None”.
