Re: tutorials?

Check out

http://www.weblabs.org.uk/wlplone/Members/Ken/my_reports/Report.2003-12-04.1729/

where all I did was copy and paste a page from a worksheet from Word to
the Plone. The only thing that didn't make it were the embedded
pictures - the rest looks fine. (Jesper can embedded pictures also
work?) So there is no need to be online to author. And you can use Word
and its many features.

By the way, it is a good idea to make these tutorial sheets - kind of
like the ToonTalk card manual...

Best,
