Now it seems to be releasing on a yearly basis with versions 11 and 12 of their operating system. Apple had OSX for 20 years with different 10.x versions. To some there was still the perception that Chrome 36 was much better and improved then the new Firefox 4.2. Soon Firefox switched to 'go up one whole number approach' to keep up with Chrome. Version 4.1 might be replaced a few months later by Version 4.2. Firefox was still using the old decimal system. The version number arguments remind me of a few years ago when Google Chrome started going up one whole number for version numbers, For example, Chrome may have jumped from version 35 and the next browser release was 36. I would not be surprised if such vicissitudes still plagued the tools you mention today. The difference on a single document with a double-digit page count could pay for a WordPerfect licence, even if they had MS Office already. Since this could add a multi-digit sum to the bill for a longer document, the legal profession strongly favoured WordPerfect. WordPerfect counted *every word* wherever it was. This was (allegedly) intended behaviour and so it never got fixed. Word only counted the main body of the document, so footnotes were excluded, as were headers and footers, as were automatically-generated text such as tables of contents and indices.

Senior lawyers may get more like 1000x more than that, so for them, it mattered.

I haven't looked into this, but toward the end of my time as a tech-support type, lawyers still used WordPerfect when everyone else had moved to WinWord *because* WordPerfect famously had more accurate word-counts.Īs a humble freelance journo I used to get in the ballpark of a tenth of a penny per word or something.
