PAE for this PD 2 years ago 1. In the 90s they made it for both Apple computers and for Windows 3. Now I think AppleWorks has been absorbed into another program meant for Apple computers today that is essentially the 'Microsoft Office' made for Apple products. Are there any programs made today that can open. Before ClarisWorks, so-called integrated product suites were nothing of the kind.

That is, while you might have gotten a word processor, spreadsheet app and drawing app bundled in one box installed, of course, from a stack of floppy disks , they were essentially separate apps. While they might appear to be part of a suite on the surface—sharing a UI design, splash screen, even some common features—they were technically very distinct pieces of software. But by the late 80s, we wanted the power of desktop publishing or DTP in our hands.

DTP would let anyone produce elementary school homework, a college essay, or a business proposal all by themselves, and being able to include graphics, pictures, charts and diagrams on a single, WYSIWYG document was vital. We came up with a frame-based approach.

These frames were then used as building blocks to make documents of the appropriate types, in a unified programming framework. Could not be more impressed. Thank you! Running High Sierra I have installed java file to fix — but nothing. Great advice! I am reading old files that I thought we gone. Can I just add to the praise of this solution. I have been able to read.

Can you help me? This is fantastic. I have an Appleworks file from which I have previously been unable to open. There is family information on there that I could not find anywhere else. Thank you so much! Is there an update to LibreOffice for this or any other program that will? I have never upgraded from Mojave Among them my Microsoft Office 11 and Picassa! For converting old images in odd configurations — Graphic Converter is the mac-diggity!
