engine as Business Plan Pro., and has the
same strengths and weaknesses. It helps you
build an outline.. and generates really professional
looking 3D charts. It will export the result
of your work to PDF and Word .doc files. The
editor is a bit weak, so you'll probably want
to export the last draft to word and finish
touching it up there. This program is worth
it just for the great 3D colored charts it
automatically generates... and it even helps
you generate the power point presentation
in which to place them. Download
