Papyrus Author overview
Papyrus Author provides a powerful word-processor for desktop publishing, with PDF export, integrated spreadsheets, and a relational database using an intuitive user interface for instant searches. You can even use Papyrus from a USB memory stick. This means that you can take your Papyrus (and your data) with you - remove the memory stick, and leave the system 'untouched'.
What's new in version 12.05d
Performance
- The installation process on Windows is now more resilient against interference during installation, which should result in fewer "Side-by-Side Configuration" errors.
- The "File Browser" button under "My Files" in the Start Screen now allows interaction with all Papyrus-supported file formats by default, instead of just .pap files. Now you can comfortably open a database or a .docx file from here.
Fonts and PDF
- Kerning has been optimized. All fonts, ligatures, and rare letter combinations should now render cleanly and correctly.
- Improved identification of complete font sets, resulting in fewer missing characters. Missing characters would otherwise appear as garbled text in the PDF.
- Emoji fonts from both macOS and Windows are now better supported. Emojis can be interacted with like regular characters — including improved copy & paste behavior for glyphs.
- Bold and italic text styles are now carried over into the PDF even for fonts that don't natively support them.
- The font cache now loads the current font more reliably, reducing mix-ups between fonts.
- Fixed a PDF metadata issue that added one hour to the PDF's creation timestamp.
- The "Get missing characters from other fonts" setting — which ensures all characters remain usable and visible even with incomplete fonts — is now also applied when exporting to PDF.
Bug Fixes
- In Story and Character Sheets, text selection is no longer lost when right-clicking or using the text style icons.

Version: 11.07
The Icon is an Amazing Piece of Art, it should sell the software. Looked at developer's website, although all in German, but generally understood the content. Developer is ignoring the biggest English speaking market, and obviously loosing money. Why not to use Google Translate widget right on the website ???

Version: 10.05
Way too complicated with limited help. I tried it for three days to create a character database and input forms plus a link to document - too long and too complicated. Wasted three days of my time and cancelled subscription for the Pro version. I'm going back to Scrivenor.

An english version of this application has been in progress for more than 4 years at least (probably more). Posting a german version without indicating that it is the german version is bad form...
