I'm interested in first-hand reports of your experience using
WordPerfect 5.0 to produce LONG documents (i.e., technical manuals 
exceeding 400+ pages in length).  In particular, how well does 5.0 
WP handle tables of contents, indexes, pagination, etc. in documents
of this length?  And how fast?

Our experience with WP 4.2 under UNIX has been less than ideal.
These shortcomings (such as the inability to produce a complete
index from a concordance file) may or may not occur in WP 5.0.
Since we aren't confident in the functionality and speed of
WordPerfect5.0, we are considering using Ventura for managing 
long documents.  I'd be interested hearing comparable experiences 
from Ventura users too, and especially from someone who has used 
both of these products to produce long manuals.

I'm cross-posting this in comp.text since I'm getting virtually no
traffic through comp.text.desktop.  Thanks for your opinions and
suggestions.
