As the topic of this post would indicate, I'm looking for a word processor that syncs to Dropbox and supports .rtf or .doc files. Basically, what's going on is that I wanted Pages, but that doesn't have Dropbox support. Before I go on, I want to mention that I understand that it has iCloud support, but this is unsatisfactory to me. iCloud doesn't integrate with Windows Explorer. I don't know how things work on the Mac side with iCloud, but I like Dropbox's flexibility. I can just open a file from the Dropbox folder in Explorer and edit my document on my computer without having to download it first, like I would with iCloud. Not only that, but I would then have to re-upload the file after finishing with it on the computer. This is why I do not want pages. Not having Dropbox support is kind of a dealbreaker for me.
The reason I want .rtf or .doc support is that I'd like VO to be able to move me from paragraph to paragraph when I flick to the right or left within a document. Since text files don't have paragraph indicators in Unicode or ISO standards or whatever (Is it obvious I have a very poor grasp of how these things work? Lol.), VO just moves out of the body of a note or document when you flick to the right of an edit field.
Anyhow, if anyone knows of anything I can try, please let me know. I'm hoping I'll find something soon!
Thanks,
