I use the very same combination and I don't encounter your issues. Might be something else.

Dear all,

I try to achieve something close to what is shown here:

I'm pretty sure I have done something similar in the past, but seem to have forgotten.
Any advice?
Thanks

I beg to differ. As far as I can see, roaringApp is a wiki; so it should be fairly easy to enter uptodate information, if you are concerned about publicity.

RoaringApps states that Mellel does not work under Lion (10.7). Is there any news on a furture release of Mellel which will solve this?
Thanks, strongbow

I couldn't replicate your problem. But note that Bookends gives you the option to 'default fonts overrides field settings' (see Bookends --Prferences -- Scan & Bib). Might also be worthwhile to update Bookends. Hope this helps, strongbow

This is just to say that I followed exactly the same update policy as rpcameron and have thus far encountered no issue at all. Mellel is very snappy and a pleasure to work with.

Just check page 170 ff. of the Mellel guide. You can find a detailed description of what to do there. I hope that helps.

Frankly, I can't see what's really wrong or overly confusing about the current policy.

That's how I would understand the policy as well...

Using the latest versions of Mellel and BE (10.4.11), I can't detect any problems. Perhaps you should try, whether it works in a new user account.

Hope things work out, strongbow

A quick look at Mellel's upgrade policy should help:

plus, here you can find a version history:

just to clarify, have you set Mellel as word processor in Bookends' preferences?

Cheers, strongbow

You might want to check whether your character style is amended accordingly. That might do the trick. Good luck...

I guess you don't use check as you type. In that case, Grammarian as well as Spell Catcher will lose the formating and footnotes/endnotes of your text. A while ago, I was in touch with the developer of Spell Catcher, and he told me then that it is the way (although different) both apps handle RTF th...

I found Spell Catcher a quite useful app but stopped using it as it didn't fit my workflow. The major drawback for me is that I like to write without distraction by any spellchecking or proofreading software. I therefore usually check in retrospect. Now unfortunately Spell Catcher (as some competing...
