It has taken nearly two years to create the newest release of EditTools, but EditTools 9 is now available (http://www.wordsnsync.com/download.php). New features in EditTools 9 include:
- Backup (http://www.wordsnsync.com/backup.php)
- Counter (http://www.wordsnsync.com/counter.php)
- Open Dialog Manager (ODM) (http://www.wordsnsync.com/odm.php)
- Revision Tracking (http://www.wordsnsync.com/revision-tracking.php)
- Time Tracker (http://www.wordsnsync.com/time-tracker.php)
Time Tracker not only lets you keep track of the time you are spending on a project, but it also keeps data about your projects and calculates your Effective Hourly Rate (EHR) and Average Pages per Hour (APH) for the specific project, all projects worked on in the current year, and all projects over your career.
EditTools 9 requires a new license; your EditTools 8 registration number will not work with EditTools 9. There are two versions of EditTools 9: a full version for a first-time EditTools user and an upgrade version for registered users of EditTools 8. Unlike past upgrades, the upgrade is not free.
For details about how to upgrade from EditTools 8 to EditTools 9, see the information at “Download Upgrade to EditTools v9 from v8.”
